Why not get one of those powerblock/selecttech things. Vj have them, starfitness might have them aswell. They go from 2-20kg and save alot of space. Vj call them a smartbell

You can see them at powerblock.com, and yes Star Fitness have them at €349 fo a 45lbs set. Had it been a week earlier I could have gotten you a discount but I've retired at the blissful age of 24.

jesus! he said cheapish! maybe that is cheap for those single "fixed" dumbells (dunno the real term). You can get 2 dumbells bars with cast iron plates with a total of 20kg (including the 2x1.5kg bars) for about €37 in argos, almost 1/10th the price for the same weight.
