Red, black or clear coat (original). A deep blue would be cool, huh?

If it’s offered in blue I’ll buy it immediately. Not even kidding.

hit an easy 235kgx3 today with this bar, love the way it feels.

right now i only do 3 movements for my low body, dead-squat bar deadlifts, snatch grip deadlifts, and wide stance parallel box squats with a SSB.

btw, i am PISSED OFF, that they now offer colours. I would have ordered the red if i could have, that seriously is some bullshit.

no kidding, that makes me mad.

Yeah, I can see how something like that could really get under your skin! That issue is right up there with children starving in the Sudan :stuck_out_tongue:

I had ordered mine and it was delayed. They offered me black or red but I actually opted for the clear coat. My bumpers are already colors so didn’t want too much rainbow action…

Cheers,

i want the damn red one goddamnint. >:(

that is sort of like selling the latest versio of windows, saying it is the best of the best, then one week after buying it, they upgrade to a newer better version of it…hey,

wait a minute…

I bought an iPhone 4S a month before the iPhone 5 came out. How dare they keep innovating!

Dude…Rustoleum.

Keep pulling until you see it red? : )

Ya HT that kinda sucks,i feel ya.Its like when they discount a product and you stock up then a week later a new product comes out haha.If it makes you feel any better i have the red one but i’m putting some good scratches on it.Just trying to make you feel better big guy haha.

thanks, im still pissed though :wink:

I too ordered a red, does the coat scratch that easily jppage? I was hoping since most of the paint wouldn’t (in theory) come into contact with the iron, scratching could be to a minimum. I’ve had that problem with some of my rogue fitness specialty bars (black coats)…and it’s vexing.

i hope it scratches very easily and all your fancy colored bars start to look like crap. there!

Na just givin ht a hard time haha .It’s holding up well

Phew. I need at least one pretty thing in my garage.

heavythrower, I know how you feel…the idea of a blue version is already intriguing me…and mine hasn’t even shipped yet. Have you essentially been doing Trap Bar style Deadlifts with it, or have you been playing around with other stuff? I’m curious about the efficiency of intentionally going slow with a controlled lowering portion of the lift…though I suspect this would be gloriously miserable and require a bit of lowering the overall load used.

I was doing scrape the rack OH press from pins with it so that’s how i put a few scratches on it .The thing is a tank so no worries,i was just makin it look mean haha.
