Troy USA Sports GOB-86 olympijská tyč

The knurling is grippy without tearing up my hands, even on deadlift sets. The alloy steel feels solid under a heavy load, and the bar spins smoothly enough for my bench work.

Came in well-packed with the sleeves already greased, and the center knurl is aggressive enough that my back doesn't slide on heavy squats. The steel feels stiff under 405, zero whip, which is exactly what I wanted for pressing.

I’ve loaded this thing up for months of heavy benching and the stress-proof alloy steel hasn’t flexed an inch under max loads. The sleeves spin smoothly and the center knurl keeps the bar locked on my back during squats, exactly the workhorse feel I wanted.
