The Northern

Here we have our premier Olympic barbell – The Northern.

The Northern is strong and durable, made of high-grade spring-steel and finished in black and silver chrome. Needle bearings and upgraded brass bushings help help with durability over conventional ball bearings, but also helping to give good whip for Olympic lifts like the clean or snatch.
