I'm thinking the dicks sporting goods one. I like the feel of the metal plates and the more granular sizes. Anyone have experience with either?

I don't have either of these exact ones, but prefer the non-bumper plates I have. I started thinking that the bumpers were strictly better, but two things nice about the metal plates. One is the size- just easier to manage, even if you aren't maxing out bar space. Second is the handles- easier to maneuver, use for light farmer carries, core work, etc

Bar has a slight bend when loaded up over 300, but nothing to worry about. I would buy a better bar if I needed to load 400.
Watch for sales, it drops lower than $300 a few times a year.

Is 28mm the most standard size?

From what I've read, I think 28mm is pretty well rounded and a standard for IWF competitions. I've heard some people may find them too whippy, idk. Some people prefer bigger bars for certain lifts like squats and bench. Whereas, I believe people like the smaller size for deadlifts. Considering I'm not anywhere near high level competition strength, I've never noticed any issues that I'd want something else.
