If you go with the Adex, I would say get the Wildman handle. It’s the size of a competition kettlebell handle. It will tax your forearms much more than the small handles, but there are also Hephaest...

Dang, this is not as easy as decision as I'd hoped. I see the Adex plates are .75" holes, so introduce a 3rd gauge in the mix... I don't have any olympic 2" plates, but I do have some 1" plates from an adjustable dumb bell set I got some time ago (admittedly it gets no use these days, but maybe I'll start using it more if I do the club thing at home more); completely useless with either option lol.
I'm inclined to go with Bill's pick, since at least the weights are standard gauge, but the distribution doesn't seem like it's as nice as with the custom Adex ones.... I'm paralyzed with choices now! Need to step away, this is stressing me out!

I was only aware of Adex when I got my club, but I think the Dangerously Fit would be a great choice. Although I’m not sure about their handle size, I think a bigger handle is what I want. My problem with the Adex is that I don’t think the weight would be distributed well when I go into heavier ...

Adding a set of fractional olympic plates to the one I have is still cheaper than the others, though less pretty than the pricier options that come with matching weight. The whole point is the lever. Changing how the weight is distributed on the lever makes the weights you work not comparable but ...

I got stuck on 1" plates and I'm hoping to get around to making adapters for olympic plates as they're much cheaper and more abundant. I'm out of space on my bar for 25lbs I need to step up to 45s. I havent found over 25lbs in 1".
