Did you happen to buy these? They're still fairly cheap.

I'm torn between picking these up in 16/24kg or just buying the Ironmaster kettlebell handle. Not really going to do anything but swings.

I bought a pair of 16s and a 24. I wish I bought a pair of each at that price, for the girls or for halos and weighting backpacks and such.
For swings the 16 feels way too light, I could easily swing it for 20s on day one. I like the idea of not chasing loading PRs wit it, so I’ll probably just use the 24 until it’s too easy or I find a deal on a >32kg bell.

I did order the 16/24. I'll watch for a deal on heavier ones.

I had a 35-75 pound fixed set by 5s a few years ago and I do remember using the 35 for the first warmups if I was coming in cold. 5-pound jumps were a waste of space for swings, but I probably should have kept like 35/50/75.

I got the 16/24 already. They're actually nicer than the old fixed KBs I had before, so that was a nice surprise.
