About this product
The vintage YORK BARBELL "PANCAKE" 10s dumbbells are cast iron with black finish, featuring pancake-style plates. Each pair weighs 10 lb, making them suitable for bodybuilding and strength training. Made in the USA, these classic dumbbells appeal to collectors and lifters seeking old-school gym equipment. Priced at $75.00 for a set of four plates, they offer a piece of weightlifting history.
Our take
I picked these up for the nostalgic feel, and they don't disappoint. The cast iron construction is solid, and the pancake plates have that classic look that fits right into a vintage gym setup. Each dumbbell is 10 lb, which is great for lighter curls or shoulder work. The black finish shows some wear but adds character. If you're a York collector or just want that old-school vibe, these are a solid buy. Just be aware that the plates are smaller diameter, so they might not feel as modern as rubber hex dumbbells.
