Advice on buying a new bar

[strengthtraining]

Hi Mark.

Finished reading your 3rd edition of starting strength and I'm in the process of buying the equipment for my home gym. I have sorted most of it but I am struggling to find a bar that meets the requirements described in the book.

I have looked up the Burgener bar you mentioned in an earlier thread, but living in the uk it is to expensive for delivery and tax.

I have a budget on 200 pounds, do you no of any uk sites that sell good bars like the one you recommended in the other thread?

Any advice would be appreciated

I'm in the UK and feel your pain. If I was buying a bar it would be this http://www.wolverson-fitness.co.uk/B...aspx?nh=314510. Guy at my gym bought this for himself and he squatted 280kg with it today. I haven't tried it for cleans/snatches but the knurl isnt aggressive (compared to a TPB anyway).
