What happens when you think about barbells
ALL
THE
TIME?
For us, it means we want to lift on the best.
And that's what the Fringe Sport Olympic Weightlifting bar is. Designed from the ground up to offer an unparalleled lifting experience, and engineered to do this at an amazing price.
We started with the basics- the Fringe Sport Weightlifting Bar conforms to IWF standards on weight, diameter, and knurl.
Then we geeked out.
Steel - We chose a 216,200 PSI tensile strength steel that is super strong, yet nice and whippy.
Knurl - We went a little deeper with our knurl than most do to deliver a bar that sticks to your hands when you need it to, but is light enough for training day in and day out.
Center knurl - We hear you, weightlifters! The center knurl is back, but we backer off the depth to give a passive (but still there) light, center knurl.
Finish - For launch, we are offering the Fringe Sport Weightlifting Bar in Matte Chrome- providing excellent corrosion resistance with a nearly-bare-steel feel- plus, matte chrome provides less "build up" in finish deposition providing an awesome grip on the knurl.
Spin - You want bearings? We've got your bearings! Four bearing cartridges provide fast, long spin for days.
The end result is an AMAZING barbell for Olympic weightlifting at a price that you won't be able to believe.
One snatch on this bar and you'll be a believer.
