This is the endplate of my Troy texas bar
The master distributor is Fitness warehouse who run Force USA, mine ordered from Gymandfitness was sent from the brisbane warehouse of FW
Oh I already own a Pendlay bearing bar and black elite plates, which I'm very happy with. I'm just a gear nerd and like knowing what's for sale. When I go to buy any more gear I'll probably try and acquire some DHS or Zhang Kong
I looked at both latest models of them today. The only difference I could see is the Buddy Capps bar has a signature (autograph) on one of the end caps and the Troy doesn't.
After buying a truly shit bar ($200) that I'm fairly sure was bent from day 1 and the bearings keep moving I got one of these delivered today. One DL session and I'm loving a proper knurl.
This only now makes me want to get better plates that fit the bar better. I don't think there is anything available in perth (like all equipment) so I'm looking at iron edge.
Looking at the Muscle Motion needle bearing bar that they offer as package with bumpers at Gym Direct. Anyone got opinions on this? Is it as good a bar as the one Markos rated as ok previously from these guys?
They seem pretty good gear overall for the price.
I just got a buddy Capps Texas power bar from gym and fitness. Hands down the best bar I've ever used.
The knurling is quite harsh, but after a week of use, I can't imagine dead lifting on anything else. Ask for Dan, he's good to deal with and gave me a good price.
I got one of the new black oxide MM bars after a discussion with The Hulk and not having the funds to throw 500 bucks + on a bar.
Apparently these are totally different compared to the older models.
So far so good, nice rough knuling, have given a fair hiding since I have had it and still straight and for under 220 delivered I am not complaining.
