This may be the best entry level bar for the money that you can get. And one thing I should definitely say is that I am not a bar junkie. I do not believe, like some people do, that the barbell is where you should spend the most money for your home gym equipment. I bought this in the fall of 2020 for around $120 and I’ve seen it range from anywhere for $100 to all the way up to I think $130. And at that price point, it’s one of the more affordable barbells you can get.   Shipping  Shipping took about 2 weeks and some of that may have been due to the amount of pandemic volume that they’re getting for these bars so they’re a bit behind. And if I have one complain about the shipping, it’s the way they ship it. The barbell came out of the cardboard tube so it did get dinged up a bit. It’s not a super big issue but it’s something to keep in mind if you’d like to keep your barbell in mint condition, for whatever reason. My philosophy is, these are barbells, they’re going to get dinged up anyway.   Center Knurl  Now this bar has a center knurl and I bought it specifically for back squats so I think the center knurl helps quite a bit in keeping it in place. The knurl depth feels good for me, not too deep and not too shallow. Now the finish of this bar is not perfect. If you run your fingers or kind of glove over it, you’re going to feel some minor imperfections in the finish of the bar but nothing like with Chinese barbell that I ordered during the summer which was almost giving me many metal splinters.   Weight  Also this bar is graded up to 700 lbs which, let’s be honest, that is going to be enough for 90% of us. Most of us are not going to be squatting over 700 lbs.  Wrap Up  Now finally, how would I rate this bar? I would honestly give it a 4.5/5. It would be 5/5 except for the shipping issues. And what sets this entry level bar apart in my eyes is the amount of value you get for your money. And that’s one thing I’ve always liked about Titan is they give you a great value. So a lot of bar manufacturers have actually been raising their price during the pandemic. It’s hard to find a barbell for less than $200 but Titan has seemed to keep most of their pricing relatively the same. And so this is a great option if you can get it while it’s in stock. I highly recommend you do what I did, which is go to their website, click on the Notify me when it’s in stock and you’ll get an email to quickly go on and buy it. But yeah, I love this bar. It’s a great option and you can’t beat the price.  Lastly, it\'s going to get interesting because in our next review, I actually have the entry level Rogue Fitness Barbell and I’m going to compare the 2. It’s going to be interesting to see for your money do you get more with the Rogue Fitness Bar? So stay tuned for that.'
