The barbell arrived sooner than anticipated and in perfect condition. Not sure I like the ridges on the sleeves yet. It sounds like it creates extra wear on the bumper plate steel inserts when changing weights. We drop the weights after a clean and jerk or snatch, so I will update the reviews after a few months of use. Both kids compete in Olympic weightlifting in high school, so the Papababe bar and weights will be put to the test.

Bar came well packaged within an inner plastic wrap and an outer cardboard tube. I must have misread the original description thinking it had center knurling, but there is none. No big deal since the bar is not slick and still finds traction on my back during squats. The knurling along the bar is a good texture for me, enough to grip well but doesn’t bite too hard into my hands. The bearing system is smooth. I’ve only been working with it for 3 weeks so can’t speak to durability but it seems well built in function and with finishes. The weight came in at 44.6lbs so well within tolerances for my home gym purposes. All around I think this is a good bar for the price and glad I decided to purchase it.

At first, I was hesitant to buy the bar but you know what it's not bad at all. I would recommend the papabe brand for anybody the best bar I have used for sure. Its sturdy the bar looks like its made with love. customer service is reliable. the bar is definitely a bang for its buck.

Love the bar, totally takes the role of the General use straight bar. Only thing I have issue with is the texture gets slippery when sweating a lot, so recommend chalk or tape if you want to use it for deadlifts or similar grip intensive exercise.

Man, this is hideously expensive but it's exactly what I wanted. It's actually nicer than the bar at my (previous) gym.I guess you get what you pay for and in this instance, that's a really good thing. This thing screams engineering and quality.Anyway, you aren't going to find a better barbell. This is the bar you use at the gym, except probably much nicer. Now that many of us are realizing we need to build serious home gyms, this is the kind of equipment you should spring for. Dumbbells are fine, but to really get a good upper body workout, you need a barbell. I suggest you buy this one.
