Synergee barbells are made with world renowned steel! These barbells are made with a high tensile strength of 190,000 PSI. Made with the perfect amount of “whip” and “flex” for weightlifting, Synergee barbells still have the stiffness needed for heavy powerlifting, Olympic lifting, body building and crushing CrossFit WODs. Each bar is tested for straightness and balance throughout the barbell. Comfort in your grip comes from the knurl. Our goal was to create a full and uniform pattern that is not too aggressive but still gives the maximum grip you need. The knurling on a barbell is ground onto the bar by a specialized machine. The pattern features two sets of diagonal lines, each set going in the opposite direction, so that they form thousands of tiny little diamonds. These diamonds keep your hands from slipping, ensuring your comfort throughout your workout. After testing multiple knurls, we settled on a standard knurl with dual knurl marks. The inner knurl mark is for powerlifting, while the outer is for Olympic weightlifting.

Best bar I've ever bought
This bar is fantastic. Aside from the fact that it looks awesome -- it doesn't rust! My home gym is in the garage, so there is some moisture from time to time -- this bar hasn't shown the first sign of rust. I can load it up with as many plates as I want, and it never warps. It's rated for 1500lbs -- I'll never see that much weight, but it doesn't even flinch at the 600lbs I put on it.It looks greatIt functions perfectlyIt's a beast of a barBuy this bar.. right now... seriously. If you were on the edge, or not sure if this bar is right for you -- trust me, just buy it. You won't be disappointed.BONUS: The packaging is unreal. I've bought bars before and they usually come in a banged up paper tube with the ends falling off and your bar bouncing around. This one came in a super thick tube, and they put 4 screws into the thick plastic end caps to make sure they were secure. The bar was also wrapped up nicely, and in perfect shape. They even threw in some wrist wraps.*** UPDATE ***I've had this bar for a while now, and it's gotten tons of use. The only con I've found is that I don't have one in each color!

Pros and cons
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. I was very skeptical about buying a barbell on Amazon because rogue barbells have been back ordered a while due to the holidays. After doing reviews the games barbell is very similar to The Bella bar from rogue. The bar seems to be packaged well and the thick tube in a plastic bag with the soft end peice before the cap, but the bar was all the way through both ends of the rubber piece and one end had some chipped metal. This bar Has the cerakote coating.. yet during day two breaking in my bar I see the pink paint wearing away already. I havnt even done squats but between the knurling is smudging. Some of the black paint on the rings after opening from the package was scratched away. I was not about to return it for something so small cosmetically. There was a lot of oil in the bar not just the ends but the whole bar. Wasn't too big a deal just wiped it off with some cleaner. It was quite a pain to open this since I had no idea how. But this bar has amazing spin, I love the width, and so far so good using it for two days now. I am taking Olympic lifting classes. So this bar has a lot of pros but for $300 and the paint chipping before day one of using is iffy to me. It's supposed to be rust free and last a long time so not sure why the paint is already coming off. But she's a beauty and people compliment me on my bar and love the spin on it. I will write another review after a few weeks of breaking her in more.

Decent bar
Very poor packaging, bar arrived scratched up & damaged on the ends. I decided to repair it myself rather than wait for a return. The red cerakote is thin and not even. Bar does function well, smooth bearings as well. Worth the money. Dont expect Rogue quality at this price though. Update 1/26/2020- The Seller contacted me and made a great effort to resolve the issue after reading my review. I did not contact them. They DO read reviews and want their customers happy with their products. So this was a better experience after all. At least they WANT to repair this issue. Hope this helps someone.

Great start to your home gym.
The way it came packaged was impressive. You can tell they have thought about it, which is good. The bar itself is not as red as the picture shows. It's more a deeper burgundy but that's not picking. It's a beautiful color non the less. I really am glad this was the bar I picked to start my home gym with, it is a great value for the money. Going to get the same womens bar for my fiancee when I'm able to. Really cant say enough good things about it. Not the best bar in the world by far, but for under 300, I can see myself using this bar for a long time to come.

Good bar
Looks great, feels great, lots of spin.Packaging was super heavy duty.Cerakote on the bar is holding up to my j cups pretty good but some of the black from the ends is rubbing off from my weights even though im being pretty careful losing and unloading.One of the sides has an audible "tick" sound as it rolls past one of the bearings.If my rep gladiator bar came in red I'd have gotten another of those. This is a solid bar for the money though.

Great quality bar!
This bar is used in a small common area gym at my work place. I bought the bar with the intention of doing all lifts including olympic lifts. Have had the bar about 4 months now and it is a nice, quality bar. The bar has rotation (spins freely but doesn't 'free wheel') and seems robust when doing heavy lifts dropping the bar from height. The knurling seems about the right height so it provides grip but doesn't cause any hand problems (skin bunching, skin damage, etc). I would buy this bar again.

Not same color blue
Haven’t had a chance to test the bar out a lot yet but seems to be good quality. Only issue for me is that in the picture the bar seems to be a royal color but the bar is a super dark navy blue, almost black. Can’t trally tell the difference between the blue and my black bar.

Great Product. Well packaged. Delivered on time
The product is well made with the specifications desired to make an excellent addition to your gym. Great look to a boring piece of equipment. Arrived without even a mar. Bar was wrapped in heavy gauge plastic and placed in a ultra heavy duty shipping tube. You need a phillips screwdriver to remove the padded endcaps. UPS made the 2 pm delivery window.

Very nice bar, had scuffs on it though
This is a really nice bar and came quickly, definitely an improvement over the cheaper one I had before which was 3 pieces screwed together, as this one is all one piece. Opening the package is a bit of a pain as it's in a super thick cardboard tube. My only negative and reason for 4 stars is because on both ends where the weights go all the black is scratched and scuffed up there. Not a huge deal as it's on the inside but it's scuffed pretty badly. The reason for the 1 star off is because RIGHT beside it is a big label saying it was personally built by someone and inspected by someone else. There's no way anyone inspected this barbell and thought that was acceptable. It does say to contact them before leaving a review, but as if I'm going to send this thing back. The poor UPS guy was barely able to carry it up the driveway, and getting it out of the tube it came in was so difficult that I had to cut it all up. Not worth returning since it's a barbell, it's going to get scuffed up from use. Just disappointing paying this much and having it have any marks on it!

Rough bearings and coating issues
The bearing in the bar end are of poor quality. They run very rough and on one end the bearing actually stick. For the price I would recommend looking at a more main stream brand. The red coating of the bar is also coming off after just lightly wiping it down.

NOT WORTH THE PRICE!!
Extremely disappointed. Looks nice until you get up close and realize the coatings already coming off after wiping it down with a wet rag. Put the bar up on my brand new squat rack and the paints already coming off without any use! Arrived with a bunch of grease all over the bar aswell. Overall NOT WORTH THE MONEY.

Amazing value
I was looking for a budget-friendly local alternative for the Rogue Cerakote bars, and this fits the bill perfectly. The knurling is just sharp enough, but not too much, perfect for oly lifts. The spin is also very smooth and it has a nice whip. The cerakote coating seems to be nice and even as well. All in all, I am pleasantly surprised by this bar and would recommend it as an oly bar or multipurpose.
