I’m in the UK so options are limited. From my research the most suitable bar would be the B&R bar, which Rogue EU do not stock, and if I order from the USA site it will cost a total of £460 (about 600 usd!)
Another option is the Ohio Power Bar, which is sold on the EU site. Looks like an awesome bar but the only downside would be the centre knurl when doing the power clean. Just how much of a problem is this? This bar would cost me £380 (about 500 usd)
Are there any other options I should be considering? Any other UK folk here that faced a similar dilemma when choosing a bar?
Any help is appreciated!
