Talk / Fitness / Equipment / Can anyone suggest some good quality dumbells?

Hi guys. I've been looking online, in particular on ebay, for some decent dumbells. I've seen some good ones on there but was wondering if anyone could suggest any they have found or have bought.

Looking at no more than hundred quid, and around 50kg (25kg per dumbell)

Thanks chaps and chappesses.

You can buy two Olympic dumbbells for about £50-60 and then about £1 per kg, so for £100/£110 you should be able to get a 50g set.

At the moment, Fitness Superstore are selling discs at 1kg at £1.29; however, it has been as low at £0.89. If you look at other websites online, you should be able to find something cheaper.

They are selling two Olympic dumbbells at £65 and collars for £6.


18" standard dumbbells will cost about £20 and about £2 for the collars.



If you only want about 25kg per dumbbell then a standard equipment would work out cheaper. However, if you want to expand on this in future, then Olympic equipment would be better.

Argos normally have the York Spinlock stuff in, normally a bargain to be honest!
