T or G bars

[Frank T]

Ordering new bars, if i get 18 wide, do i need to worry about T bars bending and get the G bars or will i be fine?

I've had 19 wide Ts for about 8 months now, and there fine.

thanks, im not a weight freak, just didnt wanna pay an extra ten dollars if not needed

I was making literally the same decision last month.
The decision basically comes down to you can save $10 and save a little bit of weight, or spend the extra $10 and have the extra strength. I went with G bars, so then I dont have to worry as much about the bars bending/breaking. Ive bent and broken bars with and without gussets, so I wanted the extra strength.

 

[Frank T]

yeah thats what i think ill do, ten dollars now is alot cheaper then another 50 dollars like 6 months from now. thanks guys for the answers, may be ordering tonight!

I have a pair of both and i prefer the T bars. They are both 20 wide but the gussets on the G bars get annoying sometimes.
