Rogue westside power bar 2 0 review.

The pictured rogue bar 2 0 was the le edition they had last black friday but is no longer available. The pin adjustments and hole frequency make it a really phenomenal bench to do pin presses isometric work and a lot more on. It has one really fatal flaw though. It shares all the same specifications as the 45 pound variant.

The zinc coating rogue uses is really nice but it s also really slippery initially so you might want to wear a shirt when you clean until the bar dulls out. The rogue bar 2 0 the rogue bar 2 0 is a black zinc barbell with bright zinc sleeves. The westside power bar 2 0 features a 29mm diameter 205k psi tensile strength shaft with single powerlifting knurl marks and a center knurl. The westside power bar 2 0 is basically the westside barbell branded version of the ohio power bar.

We spec d out a min strength steel of 190k and bought it in mass for all the bars other than the power bar. This new version is fully machined and constructed at the rogue factory situated in columbus ohio the rogue bar 2 0 represents the towering level of accurate manufacturing with a wide variety of creative features. First is that it uses composite bushings rather than cast bronze and second we have the ability to customize the look of the bar with colored bands that sit in machined grooves on the collars. The westside power bar 2 0 features a 29mm diameter 205k psi tensile strength shaft with single powerlifting knurl marks and a center knurl.

The updated knurl pattern was chosen specifically to louie s standards and is deep and coarse without being sharp or abrasive. That is same shaft diameter tensile strength knurl depth bronze bushings and so on. The power bar steel is 205k tensile and different composition to make it more stiff more for powerlifting not olympic weightlifting. The rogue bar 2 0 is the next creation of the 28 5mm olympic bar that further enhanced the revolution.

There are two things that make it stand out from the others. About all that makes it different is the custom end caps the totally blacked out zinc finish. I d trust dropping a bar with my life on it too.
