Very good quality equipment from Mirafit. Will definitely be recommending and using this company for all my equipment moving forward.

I love this bar for the thick grip. I don't specifically want to work on grip strength but I have fairly large hands/palms and find the standard olympic bar diameter uncomfortably narrow - I always find myself trying to use grip pads or other methods to 'pad out' the diameter, but all the workarounds I've tried have drawbacks. So this increased diameter is great. However I don't love that the grip isn't knurled - I'm not sure that making the bar slippy specifically helps with improving grip strength - I'd like to see knurling added. I also found the sleeve length a little short - its fine if you're lifting light or using thin metal plates but if you use wider bumper plates then you can swiftly run out of sleeve length for plates.

Great piece of kit! Takes your training to a whole other level. Prepare to drop the weight and ache in places you never knew you could ache! I’m using this bar for deadlifts and overhead press. Totally recommend this bar.

Had mine for 3 weeks now and got a few workouts in with my axle bar. It's a great bit of kit that adds that extra challenge for my strength training. I love that it's smooth which makes my grip work harder.

Good solid bar - limited weight capacity but have loaded it up to 160kg with tri grip 25kg plates. Won't fit many bumpers. Every time you load a plate on or off the bar it strips the powder coating to dust, so the ends are bare steel at this stage and a bit rusty. Doesn't bother me but could be an issue for some.
