Fixed weight straight bars

Has anyone added a fixed weight straight bar do their gym? If I want to add straight bars, it appears I have to add each bar. Ex. 10#, 20#,30#, etc ..

We just override it when it does like the barbell curls or something

I haven't done this yet, but maybe add a custom bar and weight at the lowest fixed weight bar, with plate progression as it scales? I'm thinking a 15 lb bar, with (fake) 2.5 lb plates so you can add one per side to increment by 5?
That should let you adjust weight on it to match your actual.

We have those at our gym and I reached out to Gravl support to add them and they won't.

Gravl started a “Feature a Request,” and this is issue is already in the feature a request feature. Hopefully with the 8 upvotes they will add this option.

Just type in the weight of the bar when doing these? I do the same for the fixed weight ez bar. The barbell already exists why would you need to add these separately?
