Good to hear about your customer service experience. Glad it was a good one. I can echo that. On my second order of plates from Hansu, one of the 10kg plates was missing. Package ripped open, cardboard sleeve present but the plastic wrapper and the plate itself had dropped out. I emailed them a photo and without trouble they mailed a new pair of 10kgs. Those arrived in great condition (so I have 3 now, actually 5 including my first order). Customer service was great.
Nice to see a recent video from you Marcus, and good work supporting your friend Brandon recently. That bar looks great. Hope you enjoy training with it.
Marcus - I can't believe that you actually received your calibrated plates! I ordered a 459 kg set back in mid-March. I've rec'd all the blues and lower but am still waiting on the reds. After politely whining to Hansu about the lengthy delays, they shipped a power bar to me for my troubles (though I'd still rather have my reds). Anyways, it's become my go to bar for bench and squats.
Xilinx, I actually ordered a few from their clearance section to compliment my Rogue calibrated plates, so perhaps that’s why mine shipped quickly. A complimentary power bar is a nice consolation but I feel your pain on the missing reds
I come to this channel to do two things, check in with one of the best home gym content creators and SMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON! Let's go. $212 is crazy barbell price
Awesome video! Have always considered Hansu but I think Australia has limited options. You are getting a nice collection of bars there mate. Bargain also. Eleiko confuses me. Their IPF bar is bare steel (although rarely rusts apparently) but their training bar is stainless? I had a rogue bare steel bar and it rusted almost immediately. The stainless steel one is amazing though.
Thank you and yes, certainly a bargain. Perhaps Eleiko uses bare steel in competition to give lifters the best feeling grip (unimpeded by a coating), but your guess is as good as mine. 😀
Thank you! It’s comparable in many ways. Good grip and feel and similar specs (lower tensile strength but for a LOT less money than Kabuki). The only difference that would be noticeable is the comp collars.

Glad to hear your experience was positive as well.
Glad to see your new video, Marcus. I've missed your content over the last couple of months.
Thanks - means a lot to me and I hope to be more consistent moving forward

Thanks Ant! It is a pleasure to work with you

😂 you da man! Yes, it is a crazy price!
Always good information with Big Marcus
Thanks Coach. It’s a good bar and another good option for home gyms.
Great review Marcus 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks Jesse
This is my favorite power bar! I alternate between this and the Ohio Power Bar.
Awesome and I can understand why.

How does the Hansu Power bar compare to the Kabuki Power bar? (Which is sharper, grip and has a better feel). Great review Marcus 👊👊

I have been curious about this one for the last few years because of the price and its IPF approved
another good option for your friend.
