Last checked a year ago
The Boneyard Rogue 28.5 mm Chan Bar with Stainless Shaft/Black Sleeve is a high-performance barbell made from durable steel. With a black oxide finish and four needle bearings, this bar is built to last and deliver reliably consistent performance in even the most high-volume and punishing workouts. The 28.5mm diameter helps create a rigid bar that has excellent whip and allows the bar to flex without bottoming out. The bar also features dual knurling, with a more aggressive center knurl for heavy deadlifts, squats and strongman competitions. The two knurling patterns are positioned to maximize grip, with the aggressive center knurl occupying the area of the bar where it is most commonly used. Whether you're a weightlifter, powerlifter or Crossfitter, this bar is versatile enough to handle a wide range of strength and conditioning workouts. Rogue Fitness backs all of their barbells with a lifetime warranty, so you can be sure that this bar will last for years to come.
