Safety squat bar

The Hamburgler

Spotter Loader
Ok so I'm sitting in hospital with my arm in a sling (did some shoulder ligaments apparently) and was wondering what the best Safety Squat Bar available in Oz was. I was going to get a new bar to replace the one I bent on Monday and figured I'd kill a couple of birdies with one stone
I'm leaning towards the GymDirect one at this stage, though I am particularly fond of black bars :D
 
I have the one from gym direct and it's not bad for the price. It's all I use to squat with at the moment.

If I remember right it's rated to 300kg but it starts to bend and wobble a decent amount at around 200. If your consistently squatting over 200 I would look for something a bit better. The only problem the better quality SSB get pretty expensive.
 
Hmmmm that doesn't really help in that my shoulders/hands still end up having to go behind my head.

I'd love one from EliteFS or something that but $$$ is an issue
