6ft, 15kg Olympic bar rated to 318kg — £150. The MYO Strength 6ft Olympic Bar delivers full-size balance in a 6ft length, with 280mm loadable sleeves and a 28mm knurled grip.
A standard power rack needs a 7ft bar to span the J-hooks. A 6ft bar is for a garage, a spare room or a studio where a 7ft bar cannot be turned around — and for that job it is excellent. If a rack is in your plans now or later, buy 7ft instead.
This 6ft bar is 15kg with 280mm sleeves; the MYO 5ft at £140 is 13kg with 270mm. The extra sleeve length takes more plate before you run out of room, and 15kg is the standard women's Olympic bar weight, so calculations stay simple. £10 is a small price for both — take the 6ft unless the room genuinely cannot swing it.
28mm is the IWF men's competition diameter and the one that whips — the small amount of bar flex that helps a heavy clean out of the bottom. Thicker shafts are stiffer and feel more solid under a squat or bench but kill that whip. If you clean, snatch or press, 28mm is the correct diameter.
Standard delivery to UK mainland addresses is £20, and free on any order over £250 — the threshold is on the order total. Order it with plates and the whole order ships free.
