Collars / Clamps

What sort if collars or clamps does everyone use?

I want a 5kg pair of collars and don't know where would be a good place to get them, any ideas? I use normal spring clamps at the minute.

e-bay

I've got some s**t spring ones and a pair of these

The bulldog ones can die with rough useage , or at least Tony's did.The only down side with the above ones is that they do very slightly damage your bar when you fasten them tight but unless your using a stupidly expensive bar that you wish to cherish for life it shouldn't really be an issue. Oh and and the price on Watsons is tantamount to rape...

I got 2 sets of ivankos, 5kgs and 2.5kgs sets. Fitness First didnt need them as much as I did obviously.
