Rogue Matt Chan Bar Review: Coop's Favorite Rogue Fitness Barbell (That Could Be Better...)

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.

    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.

    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.

    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:)
