  the $30+ one I've got is also adjustable. max with all 6 weights is 10 kg.

  !!
  
  10kg!
  
  i need more than 20kg per hand..
  
  man, is there any barbell on the market that can load more than 20kg on each side?
  
  if not, i guess a barbell would be a better choice, but dont know where to find..

  for beginners, start with a light weight like 8 kg 1st.
