Weight Distribution
Customers have mixed opinions regarding the weight distribution of the CAP Barbell Olympic Set. While some are pleased with the even weight distribution and overall quality, others mention issues with chipped weights and uneven plates, as well as a less-than-ideal bar texture.
Highlights
Quality
The weight set is awesome and no complaints.
The 7ft bar is very clean and knurled for grip.
I’ve been using them for over 2 years now and some of the paint is chipping off but not supper horribly.
Overall a really good investment especially during quarantine (:
Price
So you get 255lbs of weights and 45lb bar = 300 lbsi purchased this same set, 600lbs (2 orders) from another site for $360.
The price is much higher than if i would have purchased a year ago, but that comes with the increased demand from the pandemic.
I am very happy with my purchase, for the money i paid and free shipping i don't think think i could have done any better.
Shipping
Awesome purchase, seller very communicative in order to get shipment to me in timely manner.
But the seller was extremely quick to respond and i received the missing plate extremely fast.
Packaging/appearance
The barbels were boxed and in excellent shape.
I did receive my order incomplete, but there are multiple packages arranged on a pallet so expected one may end up missing.
These arrived wrapped tightly on a pallet.
Competitiveness
The caps are just as good as the troy and york.
Besides the cap olympic weights, i have troy and york.
Most of local gyms in my area use cap bars/plates and there was no difference in the quality of what i received and what i used at the gym.
