GB1 Bar

Works fine. Although I haven’t really tested in a heavy weight yet. Also, in the picture it’s kind of a darker chrome but in reality it’s just a steel color. The first picture in the website is somewhat misleading. So far so good though! Would recommend!

Love it

It was love at first site. Damn thing is pretty. However, it came with a few blemishes due to shipping screws. I contacted Giant and they quickly refunded me $25. I filed the blemishes down a bit. Still pretty despite the little pock marks. Like a two baggger, I focus on the "good" side of the bar. I'm definitely sticking with Giant over Titan.
