Wanted: 20kg weight

Posted on
  • Preferably one or two weight plates with a hole in the centre, or a kettle bell wanted- thinking £20ish.

    What have you got?

  • you can have my stomach, and your welcome to it, bloody thing.

  • I've lost about 2kg of my own weight last month - if you find it, you can keep it. Hope that helps.

  • Two bags of spuds? Borrow one from a local gym? Wheel bike to local gym and use it there?

  • My intention was:

    • Put bike in turbo
    • Hang weight from pedal axle
    • Rotate rear wheel backwards, raising weight until crank is parallel with ground/zero offset figure is highest
    • Record zero offset figure displayed on PC-V
    • Put numbers into spreadsheet to calculate slope
    • Enter slope into PC-V

    So easiest to do at home I think, and 20kg is a lot of spuds!

  • 20kg bag of sand from B&Q?

  • I've got a 20kg bag of Mapei tile cement, not the easiest of things to hang from a pedal however.

    That said, I'll give it a go if I cannot find something more compact I guess.

  • Even a 20kg olympic plate is large and cumbersome, but its either that of 4x5kg standard plates with 1" hole which is even more cumbersome.
