- HGM take: The Vulcan Bravo is our top pick for the “Best Value All-Arounder.” It hits the 28.5mm “sweet spot” diameter, meaning it lends itself equally well to CrossFit, Olympic lifting, powerlifting, and general purpose barbell training. It also has all the features of a high-quality, versatile bar—dual knurl marks, a solid 165k PSI tensile strength, and a durable chrome finish. Vulcan is an extremely respected specialist brand, and a barbell from them at this price point is a huge win. Most “first and last” products are “buy once, cry once” but for the vast majority of lifters, with this one, there’s no crying – just buying and lifting.
