£75 is cheap. Postage was expensive when I asked.

It says the postage is free, cheeky buggers. Or do you live on some bizarre channel island that time forgot that always incurs large postage fees?
If you gonna get one with non revolving sleeves you might as well use a scaffold pole. I went to a yard and offered the bloke a tenner for a six foot length, then used hose clips for the inner collars, works like a charm.
P.s. When I say I offered him money for a length I mean length of scaffold pole.

Hahahaha, I second the scaffold pole idea. We hused one for long enough and it held up pretty well.
Living in the Highlands I can relate when it comes to postage, I have a KW postcode (Kirkwall, Orkney) despite living on the mainland.

All of the comps I have done that include an axle was always a smooth pole , I think the knurled ones are quite rare ,they look lovely though !!

That's what I was thinking, but wondering how grip goes with no knurling. Will have to give a go, 13euro 7" scaffold here:-) What length is best? Monger said he could cut to 6 foot either.

I got a 6' section so it would get in my car easier, 7' would be better though as I don't have much space left for plates if I use it in my rack.

Mine is cut to 7", like a standard Olympic barbell. Seems spot on.
