This concept was thought up by Bob Gajda decades ago, but it was underrated and fell out of production until ATG brought it back to light. Now, companies worldwide are producing tib bars, and my mission is to bring you the lowest-priced, American-made option. The primary issue with tib bars lies in the tendency for the weight to shift down the shaft and for the plates to shift during use. Our innovative, keyed design empowers you to secure the weight in precise 1/4” increments.  Weighing only two lbs, the molded Tib Bar 2.0 is lightweight and collapsible, making it convenient to transport to and from the gym.  2" Olympic size plates required for use! *The Tib Bar 2.0 is made of VERY tough and durable ABS plastic material. ABS is a preferred structural material due to its impressive strength, impact resistance, and temperature performance properties. The Tib Bar 2.0 is significantly stronger and more durable than our previous version, while at the same time being lighter (and thus more portable), using never-before-seen, patented technology.* Product Details: Lightweight & Portable Weight 2 LBS No Collars Needed Made of Durable ABS Material 8-Inch Loadable Sleeve Length Patent Pending Design High-Quality NPVC Foam For Added Comfort Made in the USA Dimensions: Length 11.5 Inches Width 12.5 Inches Hight 7.5 Inches  Weight Limit: Rated to 150 LBS
