    Default Which barbell brand?

    Hello everybody

    I recently picked up an old barbell, only I am struggling to determine the brand, maybe you guys can help me out? It has a split sleeve but i cant find any marking/brandname..

    I payed 50 euros for it dunno if thats a good deal or not.


    Some details:

    - bar length: 7 ft or 213 cm

    - Sleeve length: a little bit more than 13 inches or 33,5 cm (see picture)

    - No centre knurling

    - weight: 20 KG


    Thanks!

    I have never seen a bar like that. Must be European.
