Maybe I am a hypebeast but this is my favorite bar in the cage and the one I use the most. It has the best balanced knurl in my opinion with grippiness and sharpness. There are other sharper bars (Texas, TSS, and even rogue OPB are all more aggressive) My local meet director (Shoutout John D) also uses this bar so it is nice for me to practice on it even though I am not a high level lifter. I have the older one with the red sticker, I have heard there are some knurling inconsistencies with the new one they just dropped.
I actually have 2 of these bars and one of them had an issue. Eleiko was great fulfilling the warranty on the bar and replacing it with a brand new one, so thank you for great CS!
Hard to justify the price tag but I did not get mine for full price, and probably would not have one if I had to get it full price.
