I've owned several buffalo style bars and the Rogue CB-4 is the one I decided to keep. The main reason for me keeping this one over the Duffalo bar or other options is mainly due to the novelty of this being 38mm. It is built very well, but I rated it slightly lower b/c the initial batches were not bent correctly and they had to replace mine and many others. The finish on mine is also more matte now, when the first one I had was more satin. Otherwise this thing is great but for most they'd probably rather spend $300 or so on a lesser bar b/c they won't use it as often or don't care for the thicker diameter.

For many people, this is the bar to end all bars. However I've found it to be overhyped. It's a good bar overall, medium knurling, Swedish steel, and a lot of prestige. Where it lacks is overall build quality as it's quite a loud bar (tolerance issues), the knurling could be better, and the price is insane. This is a bare steel bar and they want almost $1300 for it before shipping/tax? NO WAY. The SS OPB is better and 1/3 of the price.

This is a nice barbell, but it doesn't do anything to separate itself from the crowd. Coolest thing about it is the end cap, but otherwise it offers nothing that other similarly priced bars don't already do.

Like all things Gungnir, this thing is beautiful. The built in collars are also really cool, but that's pretty much all you get. There's not much else that sets this apart from other non-sackable curl bars that are a fraction of the price.

Best way for me to summarize this bar is, "unique." Lot of history with the brand when it comes to weightlifting, but they also make some solid powerlifting gear. The key standouts on this bar are that it's made in Japan, has a square knurl pattern that is hand pressed, and has some of the smoothest spin on the shaft/sleeves you'll find. The knurling itself is on the passive side, but it's extremely well built. Where this one will turn you off is the price. Retail for this is now over $1000 and I believe Uesaka USA is going away, so you'd have to pay even more to import it.

This is my daily driver. It's like a goldilocks bar for me, it does everything just right. I compete in powerlifting so I wanted thin collars, good grip, and a good price. Rogue has really nailed the updated Ohio Power Bar line. You can pick any coating, 45lbs or 20kg versions, several options on knurling, and it's all made here in the USA. The only way this bar could get better is if they offered an aggro 2 version of the knurling.

Let me start by saying this bar is a great value if you can get it when it's on sale for sub $400. They've since upped the MSRP and is sometimes listed for $500-$600 in which case I would not recommend. This is a very well built bar overall with good knurling and tight tolerances. It has a slightly longer center knurl than most other power bars, which I prefer. Outside of the price fluctuations the only other thing to be aware of is Hansu customer support is awful, but the equipment they make is great.

I love this bike. When comparing to other offerings you'll prob find it's not the top at any one thing, nor is it the most affordable. However, when you combine the machine with the Peloton app/ecosystem, that's where the value is. We bought our first Peloton back in 2021, mostly b/c it took up less space than the other cardio equipment my wife was interested in. After giving it a try I was hooked. I love the gamification, playlists from the coaches, and just competing in general. It also offers more than just riding, so even though it's subscription based we've gotten our money out of it.
