Adjustable dumbbells take up less space than a set of fixed dumbbells. A pair of 30kg REP QuickDraw™ Adjustable Dumbbells (KG) can replace the need for 12 pairs of fixed dumbbells (2.5lbs-30kgs). Learn more about the benefits of adjustable dumbbells here.

While there are some similarities – such as volcano-style knurled, steel handles; micro adjustment plates; extensive drop-testing; space-saving capabilities; quick and easy weight changes; the ability to expand weight over time; a max length of just over 18”; and a pro-style shape with a flat bottom to prevent rolling – there are many differences. A few of the main ones include:

The weight capacity: The QuickDraw™ (KG) starts at 2.5kgs and goes up to a 30kgs max. The REP x PÉPIN starts at 10lbs and tops out at 125lbs. The QuickDraw™ (KG) comes in the following sizes: 15kg, 20kg, 25kg, and 30kg. The REP x PÉPIN in 85lb, 105lb, or 125lb pairs. 

The materials: The QuickDraw™ has steel switches and an almost-all steel construction accented by strong, nylon composite. The REP x PÉPIN is fully metal, including the cradles.  

The mechanism to change the weight: The QuickDraw™ uses a Lock-N-Load switch; you can flip one switch at a time or multiple switches all at once for fast weight changes. The REP x PÉPIN uses a magnetic pop-pin.  

Design: The QuickDraw™ dumbbells are entirely new to the market, whereas REP x PÉPIN dumbbells were created as a partnership between REP and a Canadian inventor, as part of REP’s Inventor Series. The original concept of these dumbbells started with Pépin, and REP recognizes and honors his exceptional work in the fitness industry.

They are expandable from 2.5-15kgs to a 20, 25, or 30kg max by simply buying more plates and removing the built-in spacers on the cradle. Shop the QuickDraw™ Adjustable Dumbbell (KG) Add-On Weights here.

The QuickDraw™ Adjustable Dumbbells (KG) come with two micro-adjustment plates that weigh 1.25kgs each. Using these weights, you can increase the weight of the dumbbells in 2.5kg increments up to 30kgs. The micro-adjustment plates also allow for 1.25kg adjustments if you don't mind the small imbalance. Having the micro-adjustment plate inside the handle and closer to the center of gravity reduces that issue.

The minimum weight of the adjustable dumbbell is 2.5kgs. The maximum weight is 30kgs.

Adjusting the selected weight is as easy as flipping a switch. Lock-N-Load steel switches are used to secure plates, and they have been cycle tested over 100,000 times. There’s no complicated and delicate gearing that you can't see (which may have unknown durability and reliability).

You can change weights very quickly -- even without the cradle, if you want to do drop sets. Just set it down and flip the switches to drop plates.

While they may not be completely silent like fixed dumbbells, the overall design and tight tolerances allow for minimal noise.

Yes, it comes with a lifetime warranty.

REP will warranty these products from defects in material, functionality, and workmanship for the lifetime of the product. Lifetime warranty coverage ends when the product becomes unusable for reasons other than defects in material or workmanship. The warranty applies only to the original purchaser and is nontransferable.

While we've ensured the dumbbell is designed to withstand occasional drops without issue, even pro-style, fixed dumbbells can be broken with repeated drops and abuse. If you have to drop your adjustable dumbbell, we recommend dropping it as flat as possible, as edge drops will put the most stress on the dumbbell.

The lifetime warranty does not cover:

Wear and tear due to normal usage (e.g., scratches, dents, rust).

Any damage to any part resulting from abnormal/abusive use (consistent drops), negligence, lack of care, accidents (drops/dings), incorrect use and/or operation of the dumbbell as specified in the user manual by REP.
