About this product
These vintage 14-inch chrome dumbbell barbell bars from Weider feature screw collar lock nuts to secure plates. The bars have a 1-inch diameter and are loadable, allowing users to add their own weight plates. Priced at $27.95, the set includes one pair of bars (4 lbs total weight). Made in the USA, these vintage bars offer an affordable way to build a custom dumbbell set if you already have plates.
Our take
For under $30, you're getting a pair of classic Weider bars that let you load your own plates. The chrome finish has that retro look and the screw collars do a decent job of holding plates in place. However, they're vintage, so expect some wear – the ones I've seen might have slight rust or scratches. The bars themselves weigh only 2 lbs each, so you'll need plates to get any real weight. The 1-inch diameter is standard for older plates, but less convenient if you have newer equipment. They're made in the USA, which is nice. Overall, these are a functional, budget-friendly option if you have plates lying around. Just don't expect precision machining.
