Overview
A 2-inch Olympic barbell from RITFIT available in 4ft and 6ft lengths, with a 25mm shaft, needle bearing sleeves, an oxide finish and a stated capacity of 350 to 500 lbs depending on length.
The shorter 4ft and 6ft options target close-grip and accessory lifts like curls rather than full barbell squats or deadlifts, a different use case from a standard 7ft bar. RITFIT backs it with a lifetime warranty against bending.
- 25mm shaft diameter, 4ft and 6ft lengths
- Needle bearing sleeves for smooth spin
- Oxide finish for durability
- Lifetime warranty against bending
Who it's for
Suits home gym owners with limited space who want a shorter bar for curls, close-grip presses or lighter accessory work. Not the right pick for anyone planning to load a bar past roughly 90 to 100 lbs per side, since one reviewer found the sleeve length limits how much weight actually fits.
Pros and cons
- Short sleeve limits real loading below rated capacity
- Shorter lengths suit accessory lifts, not squats
