LIONSCOOL 7FT Olympic Barbell for Weightlifting, Power Lifting, 2 Inch Strength Training Bar for Squats, Deadlifts, Presses, Rows, Curls - 700lbs/1000lbs/1500lbs Capacity

I got this bar over Black Friday and am amazed at its quality.The finish is perfect with good spin and even costing. The packaging was rock solid and ensured the bar wasn't damaged during shipping.4 months later, and it hasn't shown a single scratch from heavy use in my rack and doing dead lifts and power cleans.To start, the most I have put on this is 270 pounds of plates, so nowhere near the 1500 rated limit. The bar had no bend at all and took repeated drops with that weight.The knurl is a great depth for me. It provides the perfect feel without cutting up my hands. I have worked with it with gloves and bare handed and love it. My only complaint? Lots of plastic shavings from the bar hitting my j-cups, but any good bar is going to do that. Be sure to clean up those shavings if you have pets or small toddlers.I really feel like this can be the one bar to last you a life time. It can take a beating, has a great finish to protect the metal, and the perfect 28.5mm shaft size Rogue made so popular.Even without BF savings, I would highly recommend.

This is an authentic Olympic barbell. Weight is spot on. Heavy not one of those cheap light barbells. Great addition to my home gym. Will be buying more in different colors. Awesome price!

I’ve been using this bar for a few weeks now and all I can say is wow. It is much higher quality than I expected. I was using a cheap $90 Cap barbell before, and this Lionscool bar blows it out if the water. The knurling is perfect for a beginner. Plenty of grip. The chrome is nice with no chipping so far. The bearings are super smooth. If you can afford it, this is the bare minimum I would spend on a barbell. Anything cheaper is just trash, and you’ll be upgrading eventually anyways, like me lol. Don’t hesitate.

Love it, only problem is I wish I would have gotten a thicker grip. Rotation is top notch. With the smaller grip the bar feels 10lbs heavier

The bar looks and feels great, but I did notice the bar is not perfectly straight, e.g., when the bar sits on the floor and you spin it, it becomes apparent it’s not perfectly straight. You wouldn’t notice the bend unless you do that test (and I’ve had no issues at all lifting with it), but the bend is regrettable.UPDATE: I contacted Lionscool about the bar and WITHOUT HESITATION and with ALL urgency they sent me a new barbell that is absolutely PERFECT! I can’t say enough how great their customer service was to deal with! I’m extremely happy with the barbell and with Lionscool!

Using in my garage gym. Rugged grips for the hands and works as it should

Excellent straight 2" weight bar. Great 7' length. Easy to grip.

I've used this for bench and deadlift. There's no center knurl so i dont squat with it. I mainly purchased this for deadlifts. There's a decent amount whip to this bar. I have the 1000lb rated bar and I've had 500lbs on it and it flexes nicely. Knurl is decent, holds nicely for mixed or hook grip. Not sure how hard the knurl is, but for home use I'd expect it to last at least a few years.The sleeves are super smooth, some may like this, but im not a fan. Plates side on easily but also slide off very easily, so collars/clips are neccessary for every lift.Overall a very well priced "deadlift bar" for home use. Solid buy in my opinion. If you're looking for commercial quality, go texas or rogue.
