    Thanks for all the feedback guys. Final design is below, brother and I both like the sword and circle and enough of you guys do to for us to go forward with it. We added the 20kg as well (we'll have 15kg bar too). These will be on the new version coming out in July.

    Very nice, big improvement on the old design. Looks like a great bar is getting even better. Looking forward to July!

    Looks great. The only thing that I would tweak is to center the sword so there isn't so much empty space at the top of the circle as compared to the bottom.

    Looks good! I would have made an "X" out of swords (for eXcalibur)... Pirate stye.



    Stand by for shameless self promotion (my apologies)... but his would be the basis of my end cap in a similar manner.

    Definitely this. I'm way to anal to look at it if it isn't perfectly centered. (srs)

    How about pictures on the new knurl and redesigned sleeves, I am sure everyone is more interested in that than emblem on the end cap.

    I'm guessing they don't have the bars in hand yet. I'm sure once they do they'll get pics and/or vids posted.

    Knurl comparison below. The new knurl is on the left, old on the right. It may be difficult to tell from the picture, but having held it in my hands and getting a lot of feedback since we've had the knurl sample for the past couple of weeks, it's significantly deeper and feels great.


    Endcap. We centered it for the OCD


    Still around 6-7 weeks out until they arrive but I think we've gotten as close to perfection as we can get with the knurl and grooved sleeves (will have pics of those once we get closer to arrival).

    Looks awesome! I'm looking forward to (hopefully) being able to order one of these when they're ready. Props to you for incorporating feedback so quickly into a new version of the bar.

    BTW, for those that were looking at the original looks like there's a special price on it right now which makes an already good price a great deal. Even with the lighter knurling with some chalk it still holds ok.

    Looks like there's only one of the original bars left. Can't wait to see more of the new ones.

    Sorry I haven't followed this thread but I have a Wright HD zinc bar with no center knurl and it's great. Sounds like this rep fitness company pretty much copied this design.

    I looked that wright HD bars at the time as well as Pendlay's. They are not the same as the Rep Elite Excalibur.

    from the wright HD description

    Constructed from 155000 PSI steel, the Wright HD 20-kilogram barbell has a 28.5mm shaft, Olympic knurling, and a bright zinc finish. The collars feature a snap ring design and smooth bushings, and the shaft has no center knurling. At $299 each, these are the least expensive lifetime guaranteed barbells available, but they're a value at twice the price.
    The Rep Elite is over 200k yield AND tensile strength with a 28mm shaft. Light/medium knurling that is hopefully more medium knurling with the new revision coming out later this month. The rep elite is similar in that it is zinc, no center knurling, and lifetime warranty... not exactly a copy by any means and also the price for the Rep Elite is cheaper which makes the wright claim to the cheapest lifetime guaranteed barbell false.

    Hi guys, haven't said much here because the manufacturer has been going slooooow due to a delay with their bar straightener supplier. They just got the bars done, but the shipment won't arrive hear till around Aug 12. I may be able to get some new pics up later this week or early next showing the differences if I can get my supplier to do me a favor before they pack them up.

    Not yet, we are simply taking pre-orders for them now that they are actually en-route. Over a month behind on production...shoot me now please Good news is that assuming these are 'just right' we will be immediately re-ordering to ensure no more out of stock issues. Feedback on the first run of bars was actually really positive and all of the people that bought it for CrossFit love them.

    New Bars Are IN!

    We received them today, and I have to say I am extremely pleased. They are as close to perfection as I think we can get. Pics and rough video:








    Not sure how to embed a Youtube video but I will try:


    The changes you can see are that the sleeves have a very fine grooving to them. I've seen a lot of low-end bars with very large, rough grooves. These are nothing like that and it's very shallow grooves. The knurl is deeper than the old knurl and "just right" I think, and we've had a knurl sample that we've had everyone that walks in the door the last couple of months put their hands on and give us their opinion. It's basically unanimous that the new knurl depth is a great improvement. The knurl know extends all the way to the collars. Lastly, we put chrome on the sleeves but kept zinc on the bar shaft. The chrome wears better on the sleeves with metal-to-metal contact scraping against weights and will look better longer, while the zinc gives a better look and feel on the shaft.

    I think they are basically a work of art as they are now, and that sleeve rotation is just amazing as always, if not better than it was before.
