Lovely black finish to the bar. Knurling that isn't too aggressive but not piss weak either. I do like the bite of the centre knurling on my neck for low bar squats....!
The spin rate isn't bad if you're doing the occasional set of power cleans or muscle snatches but I wouldn't really call this an oly lifting special bar. Nice degree of whip...but again, not too whippy. I reckon it makes for a good step up from your average hardened chrome power bar for your garage gym.
