I'm looking into getting a pair of selectable dumbbells. Does anyone have any recommendations for ones they have expeience with? I'd like them to be easily adjustable so there's not too much faffing around between different exercises and with a good variety of weight choices from 5 kg up to around 25 kg per dumbbell.

TIA

    I'm using Marcy Bruce Lee dragon ones. They go from 2.5kg to 25kg each dumbbell. Have used them for a few weeks and I really like them. They are quick to adjust by just sliding the pin. They are easy enough that I can change the weights within a 10 second rest doing drop sets.
    They are really good quality and will definitely last. I got free delivery when I ordered and had them within 24 hours. I just found them by doing a google search.

    Great thanks! I'd looked at those ones and thought they looked good and reasonably compact so this is just what I needed to hear. :happy:

    If you put 'selectable weight' into YouTube you can see videos of some of them.

    I see them come up on craigslist from time to time (along with any other exercise equipment you ever wanted) for cheap.

    I use a set of Bodypower Spinlock dumbbells.
    Got mine from www.fitness-superstore.co.uk - good prices and quick delivery.

    Only downside is that although the spinlocks are quick to change weights you have to tighten them quite firmly to stop them loosening off.
