These barbells were over 10 years in the making – the fusion of customer insights, rigorous testing, thousands of reps by different types of athletes, and our decades of experience in both lifting and designing quality, innovative gym equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eREP was founded in Colorado, and this short barbell embodies their signature, flagship Colorado™ bar design in a more compact form. The 15kg Colorado™ short bar is a premium, multi-purpose barbell that retains all the well-loved features of the original 20kg Colorado™ bar but in a shorter, 6’ length (72”). Designed for tight spaces like garages, group training environments, or competitions, this barbell for small spaces combines top-tier performance with unmatched versatility. The Colorado™ short bar comes with a sleek black Cerakote shaft (standard 51.5\" length) and hard chrome sleeves. Cerakote provides exceptional durability and corrosion resistance, while the hard chrome finish adds a smooth, long-lasting coating to the sleeves. Its 28.5mm shaft diameter, identical to the original Colorado™ bar, ensures the bar feels and performs just like a standard Olympic barbell. The barbell also features composite bushings, which provide a smooth, consistent rotation and reduce noise when dropped.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShorter Design for Small Spaces:\u003c\/strong\u003e At 72”, this bar is ideal for small gym spaces, garage gyms, and group training\/competition environments.
