Stump Bar



No, I do not need another barbell. but this one spoke to me.  It is made by Rogue Fitness.  It is a rackable short bar.  I did not even know it existed and had previously been coveting a C-70S bar which is the same length, but 28.5 mm diameter.

The Stump (retail $350) is a shorty power bar, with powerlifting knurl marks and a center knurl.  The short length reduces the weight from 45 pounds to 30 pounds.

Eric Sandoval listed it for $200 and he was throwing in some collars which turned out to be Rogue Cerokote (retail $69.50).  Anytime I can get Rogue equipment for under 50 cents on the dollar it is a win.  When it is something I can actually use, it is a double win.

Eric was good to work with.  He was moving and downsizing his previously 1500 square foot basement gym.
