KEY FEATURES
MAKE EVERYTHING YOU TOUCH TURN TO GAINZ.
Based on 11 years of experience and hundreds of thousands of barbells sold, the Midas Revenge Barbell is the gold standard of barbells for garage gyms. Good looks run in this family.
The Midas' Revenge Barbell is optimized for the power movements like deadlifts, bench pressing, and squatting, while still allowing efficient performance in CrossFit training and Olympic lifting.
The Midas’ Revenge Barbell features a moderately-aggressive pyramid knurl covered in a smooth, corrosion-resistant Cerakote finish. It's slow, smooth, predictable spin was designed for slow lifts and powerlifters.
This means that the Midas' Revenge Barbell will always perform well. This is a bar that’s meant to be used, and with that comes battle scars. Battle scars might look like scuffed collars or wear on the Cerakote shaft, but should be considered badges of honor for a well-used bar.
It won’t break under any circumstances, but if that does happen by chance, send us a message and we’ll get you back on your voyage of strength.
Buttery, predictable spin from four aerospace-grade bronze oil-lite bushings feels great in your hands and moves smoothly.
Aerospace-grade bushings provide a lifetime of low maintenance and high performance.
If you’re looking for a sexy, ultra-durable general weightlifting barbell, the Midas’ Revenge Barbell will give you gainz as good as gold.

No, the sleeves are coated in gold colored titanium. Titanium is 40% lighter than high-strength steel, but is just as strong. This means the sleeves on the Midas’ Revenge Bar are ultra-durable and resistant against oxidation. Unfortunately, real gold is super soft and easily bends, so it would be terrible for a coating on a barbell built for super performance.
Cerakote is a ceramic-based finish that can be applied to metals (like our barbells), plastics, polymers and wood. Cerakote makes a highly effective barrier against oxidation and corrosion. People living in marine environments or on a coast find this advantageous. Cerakote also helps defend against excess sweat (think lifting in Fringe HQ in Austin during hot summer months) and extremely hot and dusty environments as well.
Originally developed for the military for firearms application, Cerakote protects against corrosion resistance, enhances impact strength (so you can drop away!), and chemical resistance in the most extreme conditions worldwide. If the US military uses Cerakote in the harshest conditions in the world, then you bet it’s what’s on our Midas’ Revenge barbell.
But we'll elaborate. Not only do we stand behind our product, but we lift under it too. Whether that means using the Midas' Revenge Bar daily at Fringe Sport HQ in Austin or offering impeccable customer service. We strive to be your trusted workout partner and trainer. Our Midas' Revenge Bar is backed by our warranty guaranteeing a lifetime of performance. If you aren't happy with your purchase for whatever reason within the first 30 days, we'll give you a full refund and foot the bill for return shipping. We aim to please, so our return policies even extend up to a year. Oh, one more thing: when you order the Midas' Revenge Bar, you get free shipping.
You have no idea what you're missing until you get this bar!! It looks even better in person and lifts like a dream.

United StatesThe other two companies that start with “R” make good products. No doubt. But Fringe is right up there with them. This bar is fantastic. Great knurl, looks great, and the shipping was fast.
United StatesLet's be real, this bar looks absolutely amazing. The gold plated sleeves haven't scratched much while loading and unloading Rogue Deep dish plates. A few scoffs here and there but the scoffs tend to fade away when you rub it with your hands. The black cerakote feels nice on the knurling. Not too aggressive. The shaft has a high quality feel to it. Fringe shipped quick but ups had a gaffe and wouldn't deliver until Fringe contacted them. Also the barbell packaging was no non-sense and easy to unpack.
United StatesThe gold finish looks really stunning with black plates.
United StatesI absolutely love my Midas bar. It’s a beautiful bar and the medium knurling feels great in my hands. I use this bar for my big lifts and absolutely love it. My only gripe is with UPS, it looks like they were tossing the bar around as the collars have some marring/scars from the shipping process.
United StatesThis bar has to be one of my favorites that I've had my hands on. This has a solid and predictable spin. The knurl and coating feel good in the hand. Loading and unloading the bar is super smooth. For me it has just the right amount of slack to be taken up for heavy deadlifts. You really can't go wrong with this bar as a good all around work horse. And to top it off it looks amazing.
