The Insportline Gryf straight bar 160 cm with a 25 mm shaft diameter is a compact lifting bar intended for general strength training and barbell exercises. With a total length of 160 cm, this straight bar accepts standard 25 mm weight plates and is suitable for home gyms and commercial facilities where a shorter, easy-to-handle bar is preferred. The bar provides a straightforward shaft without curves or knurling variations, making it compatible with presses, rows, squats and accessory lifts that require a compact straight bar.
Advantages
This straight lifting bar offers a 25 mm shaft diameter that fits common standard plates, a 160 cm overall length that improves maneuverability in confined spaces, and a solid construction designed for repeated use in strength training. Its simple straight design allows for uniform grip and positioning across many barbell movements, and the compact size reduces the space needed for storage and handling compared with full-length Olympic bars.

- Home strength training with standard 25 mm plates
