Where did you find them at that price for? I've just googled Wolverson bumper plates and on their website they are about £3.20/kg. Still far cheaper than Eleiko but not £1.75. | ||

Cheers for that, I only looked at the coloured ones. Pity the 20's are out of stock. I might just keep checking in on these. | ||

Scotbasher - forever Member 59, 2115 posts | If never heard of wolverson before but their power bar specification certainly reads well, it could well be the answer to this frequently posted question of which bar should I buy? Would be interested to hear from people who've owned one a while | ||

Member 4085, 7 posts | Eleiko now do a crossfit bar with both bench & snatch marks on the bar, but price wise it could be a case of mother sell the pigs & buy the bar! | ||

Member 3714, 637 posts SQ 265, BP 177.5, DL 265707.5 kgs @ 97kgs Eq | i've had a TBP for a good few months now and really like it. knurling is pretty rough so great for deadlifts and the centre knurling is good for squats too. for someone at my level its probably the best about. eventually i would like to upgrade but need to justify the cost. got amortgage etc to pay and if i dont actually need a bar costing over 1K, i wont get one. yet. | ||

Getting fat is just as dumb as using PED's Member 3387, 2532 posts SQ 275, BP 200, DL 290765.0 kgs @ 114kgs UnEq | Used it 4 or 5 times now, really stiff and good knurling. The oxidised finish has worn slightly from benching which isn't an issue unless your bothered about the appearance. | ||

Does not need Advice, knows everything. Member 3505, 3510 posts SQ 295, BP 182.5, DL 290767.5 kgs @ 105kgs Eq | I used the Wolverson power bar today and have to say that I was impressed. We used it for deadlifting heavy and the knurl felt great and it was nice and stiff. It didn't feel dissimilar to my Eleiko. I would say that it is the second best bar I have used for powerlifting, nicer than the Okie, TPB, and for £200 is a bargain. | ||
