The Rogue Matt Chan Bar is my favorite barbell from Rogue Fitness. But, it could still be better...
Rogue Fitness teamed up with CrossFit Games Athlete Matt Chan years ago to create a custom barbell. He took his favorite specs and created a truly unique bar.
Since its initial creation, it's been updated and improved to include a stainless steel shaft coated in Cerakote. I love this bar and I think it's one of the best rogue fitness barbells there is.
However, I still think it could be better. I think the Cerakote should be removed from the knurling, at least as an option, and the end cap could have a more durable film.
Regardless, it's an incredible bar and if you can afford it, I'd suggest adding it to your home gym.

I’ll wait when Rogue comes out with “The Coop Bar” because it will be perfection.

This one always looked the coolest to me, I just don't see myself using it over some of my other bars so never pulled the trigger.

Coop, your passion for talking barbells is infectious! How long until you work with a company to design the Coop bar? Can't wait!
how about a review on the new ogue ohio bar 2.0S! It's supposed to be 50% quieter
Please review the Ohio Bar 2.0S
I’ve had mine with the cerakote sleeves for about a year of heavy use and LOVE it still. Still a gorgeous bar
Hey Coop! I’ve always wanted my own home gym and after watching your videos I think I can do it. Just wanted to say thanks!
Please review the pyrros bar! It has caught my eye now that the stainless sleeve is offered.
Definitely review the Pyrros bar!
It has my name on it. I WANT IT
I wish I had enough eleiko plates just to rest my barbells on, actually I wish I had any eleiko plates at all 😂
Cerakote is a ceramic coating, It has been used on firearms for years. It makes the bar last lifetimes longer. Stainless steel eventually corrodes over years of use with the introduction of salt and moisture (sweat) The Cerakote stops the sweat penetrating to the stainless part of the bar. Its mostly presentation (It has better longevity over Zinc and Oxide coatings) It can be done in an unlimited amount of color unlike Zinc and Oxide. But it also has a protective aspect to it that outlasts Zinc, Oxide and adds life to a regular stainless bar.
Decided to go with this, thanks for the review Coop!
Needs a Kabuki style end cap with the Matt Chan logo
Would love to see a review on the freedom bar
Curl bars please
Bought one from the Boneyard a few years ago. They sent me one with black cerakote sleeves, but the shaft is all stainless steel. No logos. Doesn’t look as cool, but I still love it.
For anyone wondering that logo is not a Samurai like I thought at first. Lol. It's a logo of a fireman with the helmet because Matt Chan used to be a Firefighter. Pretty cool. 😂

Coating a stainless steel bar seems exactly like somthing a crosfiter would do
Great review love the channel! Do you ever review Bells of Steel bars? I was thinking about buying their utility/multipurpose barbell.
I got my Rogue Boneyard bar on WEDS . I LOVE IT !!! Thanks COOP
Rogue offering local pickup again! Time to buy!
Coop, love to see some reviews on the Griffin Fitness Stainless Steel Power Bar and the Lu Xiaojun Mastery Stainless Steel Power Bar.
That is a nice looking bar and thanks for the heads up on the coated ends. I haven’t gotten a bar yet but I plan to I recently joined a CrossFit style gym after doing a few classes there and it seems like the place to be to me. Besides I have to do something to counter act the BBQ I’m making...
I needed a shorty bar and decided to splurge on the Rogue C-70S. It's rackable, same as a normal bar, just the loadable sleeves are shorter. I needed a shorty bar because I have a confined space to work with.
Yes please do the Pyrros Bar Coop. It seems like a great Oly weightlifting bar, possibly end with a quick comparison to other higher end bars like Rogue’s own OWL stainless and Euro steel bar also the old standby standard Eliko OWL bar. btw, I have this New Chan bar & love it for a lot of outside the rack work, especially floor work. Cleans, Deadlifts especially feel better since you don’t have to wear long socks or sweatpants to protect your shins.
So many barbell secs to consider. I just wanted a rust free metal stick with the bearings still intact. Now i have options.
Have this bar and love it. I'm hopeful they'll update it with the 2.0S technology soon.
Want to see if we need to add this in our home gym 😊
I've been using 2 of the og Chan bars for the last 6 years and i still l love them
Thanks Coop! What are your thoughts on the Rogue Euro Bar for dedicated Olympic lifting?
I love mine. As soon as i saw it i wanted it. Its a badass bar for sure. Its about 45lb plus with 2x25 plates. love touch & go snatches with it after a run.
I actually like the coating coming off over time because it feels like I'm using it more. Each scratch feels like another notch on the wall of my journey.

Kind of wish they made a short version of the Chan bar like the C-70S. Just would make it better for home gym storage purposes for those not maxing 45s on the sleeves...
Would love your thoughts on ATX powerlifting competition bar
Review on best compact leg press/squat machines or attachments pls...
Can you do a review on that quiet barbell that's supposed to be half as loud?
Hugely enjoy the content. I ask, which would you go for. Thinking of getting a Chan bar, but I’ve seen you’re video on the American barbell. Take care

Hey coop, do you think a stainless matt chan bar knurling is more aggresive than like an cerakote or ecoat opb?
Damn, you are so knowledgeable in barbells. You should custom make your own barbell. I would consider buying.

Made of vibranium, or if not then titanium
Coop I hope you see this comment.....because you are 100% right about the coating! I had the original non-stainless Chan bar with cerakote finish and I stumbled upon a Boneyard version of the Chan bar, in stainless but without coating, and replaced it with that. Talk about a world of difference!! My Ohio power bar has gotten a serious lack of love since the stainless bar arrived. If Rogue would drop the coating I think they would be close to the perfect do it all bar for most people, my opinion of course:)
I like your content. One question, I’m on the fence with getting a 28.5mm bar, I currently have a 29mm power bar, but I like front squats. The question is, will a 28.5mm bar benefit me for this movement? Thanks
I would love to see a review of the Pyrros Bar and the Rogue Euro Bar.
Coop challenge: videos covering 2-3 bars to cover all barbell lifts with utter awesomeness!
Pyrros and all the IWF bars from rogue! also the different Eleiko bars, Uesaka, ZKC... Get back into Oly for a while lol also the luxiaojunbarbell stuff. Shoes and equipment.
Wow, looks gorgeous
do you have a review of the Fraser Edition ? also for home gym owners. best deadlift bar, Squat Bar and Bench bar video
I wish they had the cerakote OPB with chrome sleeves option. Only thing keeping me from getting a red one.
I check the boneyard everyday I just got an Ohio bar for $150 as my first barbell once my strength is on par to where I want , I’m just a beginner lifter , I will get my holy grail THE CHAN BAR!! I just wish they had the old option that used to be like $295 not $425 like it is now
review even more equipment from Bells of Steel pls, i think they deserve the visibility, and i want to know more about their products
Lu XiaoJun Mastery Power Bar looks great.
Could you review the Lionscool black Olympic bar? I bought one and so far I really like it and I am curious what your thoughts would be.
Great video. Coop could you PLEASE do a review of the 'Titan Maxumm Stainless Steel Power Bar' ?
This is high quality content so I liked the video.
If I'm just gonna buy one barbell for deadlifting and squatting (not brand specific), what would you recommend? Currently using old rusted hand me down olympic bars I've had for years. Also its damp in my garage so do have some rust issues.
Review the Eleiko XF bar plz plz plz
Please review the Pyrros bar Coop!!
ROGUE OHIO BAR 2.0S Looks great, and curious to see if any improvements were made to an already amazing bar besides it being more silent.
Coop, do you have Pallini of France and Leoko of Finland barbells in your collection?
Been really looking at this bar as it's one of the very few with a center knurl and that isn't a power bar and comes in a color so it can be quickly differentiated from my olympic weightlifting bar.
I prefer a chrome sleeve over a Cerakote but I also think cerakote sleeves with a few scars and scratches look cool to, it gives it some character.
Rogue Westside Powerbar Hands Down the BEST
Coop you might be the best equipped to answer this: I have the Chan bar (v1 actually) and love it. However, I like to keep both squat and DL loaded in my gym, so I want a 2nd barbell (besides my C-70S, rack-able curl, and 22# baby Bella). Would you add a squat bar and use Chan for DLs, or vice versa? Any specific bar recommendations? Feels like it would be silly to have double Chan bars ;-) Thanks for the reviews!
What about the fringe hybrid and how it compares to this?
I wish they still offered the full stainless steel version of the chan bar
Hi. Could you tell which one bike is better? Assault air bike pro, Schwinn ad8, Rogue Echo. Thanks
Hey coop can you make a video review of rep rogue titan and frindesport storage systems??
Review the Xmark Crowbar.
Anything on the Fringe Bomba v3?
Not the bar for me, but watched it anyways. Now I would love some deadlift bar reviews/comparisons....
I'd love to see you review the new C-70S bar and the new Ohio Bar 2.0.
Need a Review on the Rogue Euro WL bar :-)
Own this. Not bad, do wish it had a bit better spin.
Please try to review the Texas Power Bar in the future
Please review them rogue 15 lb training bar. Curious to see the 45 lb max capacity as it is a bar I’m looking to purchase for my wife.
Nice vid Coop.Id like to see a review on the Ohio Power Bar E-Coat, there’s no much review out there. I own one and I hope I made a good choice!
Have you done a video/article comparing e-coat vs zinc vs cerakote vs stainless on the same barbell ? Say a Rogue Power Bar?
Please review the Pyrros bar.
What kind of shoes are those? Super cool looking.
I ALMOST got it before, but I bench and overhead press with my finger right on the edge of the knurling on my OPB, so this wouldn't work too well.
Nice but how is it for curlz?
Rogue recently released the Ohio Bar 2.0S, which introduces both a quiet bearing design and a proprietary sleeve coating. I'd like to see how durable these new technologies are.
hey man i'd love to see a review of any of the german made SQMIZE bars
Please compare the Pyrros and Euro bar.
Have you checked out Crandell Fitness? They're based outta Las Cruces, NM. they have some very cool barbells and bumper plates.
