Overview
The 20kg Alpine Weightlifting Bar is REP’s top-tier Olympic weightlifting barbell. This bar follows International Weightlifting Federation specifications, including a 28mm diameter and knurl markings to help you determine proper hand placement on the barbell. This bar features a hybrid needle-bearing sleeve construction and utilizes both special inner-race bearings and standard needle bearings that provide a smoother and more consistent rotation.
Its passive center knurl is smoother to accommodate high-volume training, but it still provides extra stick during back squats. Its medium-depth, volcano-style knurling provides a solid grip during lifts, but not so much that it will tear up your hands during high-volume training. Ribbed sleeves help keep plates stable and secure during explosive Olympic lifts. The Alpine bar was made with high-end details, like laser etchings of the barbell name and weight on the inside of the sleeves, as well as metal endcaps featuring unique designs. The 20kg Alpine Bar is available in hard chrome; fully stainless steel; or a black chrome shaft with hard chrome sleeves. Its static rating is 1,500lbs. This is an Olympic weightlifting barbell that stands out from the rest.
