Little Bloke vs Gym vs Iron Edge Direct Plates

[Gilly]

first lotto purchase would be a set of those gangster Ivanko plates that look like the magazine of a revolver.

it all weighs the same, find the ones you find the most aesthetically pleasing and offer the better plate combination.

So does anyone know of any plates that are proper diameter (45cm) but thin so you can fit more weight on the bar but not expensive competition plates.

if u want bumpers
Iron Edge / Australian Kettlebells :: Weightlifting Equipment :: Bumper Plates :: Iron Edge Premium Bumper Plates
the 25's are 6.1cm thick

or rubber coated plates
Iron Edge / Australian Kettlebells :: Weightlifting Equipment :: Bumper Plates :: Iron Edge Premium Bumper Plates
the 25's are 5cm thick

if ur looking for thinner plates, u will need to pay more, it comes down to u get what u pay for.

 

[Bazza20]

Yeah they are too thick. I already have some iron edge bumpers.

I'm willing to pay, so what else is out there, I don't need bumpers.

How much weight do you plan on loading on the bar?

You can get 300kg+ with 25s

I have both the iron edge bumpers and gym direct rubber coated and doing rack pulls am limited to about 300. Plus is makes it impossible to use smaller plates get to certain weights.

I'm searching on the net but can't seem to find anything

you can download the dimensions down the bottom.
All the plates (except the bumpers) are cheaper than the IE premium bumpers.
Just be careful as some are not the standard height.

I like the look of the iron edge plates, in fact I might walk down and buy a couple 20's.

He wasn't lying either lol

Thanks for that Hamburg. They look the most promising so far. Do ABC have the prices anywhere on that site.

 

[The Hamburgler]

Nah you gotta email em to get a price list.

If you've got some form of ABN or whatever you will get a better price.
