That’s how we know these will be the best barbells you’ll ever put your hands on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eREP was founded in Colorado, and this short barbell embodies our signature, flagship Colorado™ bar design in a more compact form.

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\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis small barbell is a true mixed-use bar, perfect for cross-training, functional fitness, powerlifting, and Olympic weightlifting. It features medium-depth, volcano-style knurling that provides a secure grip without excessive sharpness — ideal for high-rep workouts and heavy lifts alike. The dual knurl markings (IPF and IWF) make it easy to set up for a variety of exercises, while the absence of a center knurl ensures comfort during front-of-body movements like front squats or cleans. Although shorter in overall length (72” vs. 86” for a standard barbell), the Colorado™ short bar retains a sleeve-to-sleeve distance of 51.5”, so it’s still fully rackable on standard power racks. The short barbell also has shorter sleeves — 8.9” of loadable sleeve length — to fit in tighter spaces while still holding plenty of plates for most lifters (weight capacity 1,500lbs). Whether you're outfitting a home gym or a commercial space, this barbell offers unmatched versatility for any gym workout.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"h5 uppercase text-black\"\u003eTech Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKnurl Style\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVolcano \/ Medium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCenter Knurl\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKnurl Markings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDual (IPF \u0026amp; IWF)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSteel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShaft Coating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCerakote\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSleeve Coating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHard Chrome\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhip\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMedium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStatic Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1,500 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTensile Strength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e190 KSI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTolerance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"h5 mb-5 hidden uppercase md:block\"\u003eFEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-features-title=\"\" class=\"mb-4 font-headingV2 text-[20px] font-semibold text-[#000000E6]\"\u003eShorter Design for Small Spaces\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/4195\/7709\/files\/1I3A2984-Edit.jpg?v=1783845413\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-features-title=\"\" class=\"mb-4 font-headingV2 text-[20px] font-semibold text-[#000000E6]\"\u003e15kg Weight\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/4195\/7709\/files\/1I3A2988-Edit-lighter.jpg?v=1783845446\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-features-title=\"\" class=\"mb-4 font-headingV2 text-[20px] font-semibold text-[#000000E6]\"\u003eMulti-Purpose Functionality\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/4195\/7709\/files\/1I3A2986-Edit.jpg?v=1783845492\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-features-title=\"\" class=\"mb-4 font-headingV2 text-[20px] font-semibold text-[#000000E6]\"\u003eComposite Bushing Sleeve Construction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/4195\/7709\/files\/1I3A2995-Edit.jpg?v=1783845519\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-features-title=\"\" class=\"mb-4 font-headingV2 text-[20px] font-semibold text-[#000000E6]\"\u003eVolcano Knurling\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/4195\/7709\/files\/1I3A2994-Edit.jpg?v=1783846704\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-features-title=\"\" class=\"mb-4 font-headingV2 text-[20px] font-semibold text-[#000000E6]\"\u003eDual Knurl Markings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/4195\/7709\/files\/1I3A9345-Edit.jpg?v=1783846762\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Motion Range","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54280601534797,"sku":null,"price":254.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/motionrange.co.uk\/products\/colorado%e2%84%a2-short-bar","provider":"Motion Range","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
