A guy at my gym bought one and brought it in. We hide it under a stairway when not using it for squats. It has really good knurling and it has some elasticity. It will bend pretty good with 400 pounds and up but it straightens out when the weight is removed. There's nothing worse than a bar that's bent. If you have $225 or so to spend, it's well worth it.

yes, i do have that much to spend. i hear that the reg power bar doesn't really have any elasticity to it...

If you are looking for a good squat/bench bar...you don't want any bend.

I've had my bar loaded over 600 and it didn't bend at all. Extra long, thick, and strong.

It is the Maddog Bar.
