If you're like me, and just use a bit of percussive maintenance when installing new barbs, or a set of rusty old side cutters to trim your hoses, then stop what you're doing, right now, and get a load of this!

This fantastic 2-in-1 wonder tool from Park is made to accurately cut your brake hoses without ovalising or squishing them, then right after that, it'll clamp your hose and install a new barb! BRILLIANT!

Who's this for: People who need to trim their hoses for a new bike build or brake install, and want a tool crafted from sheer genius, (and a bit of anodised aluminium and steel).

Barb compatibility: Any brake with a push-install barb, which is just about every brake on the market.

Hose compatibility: Will cut all hoses EXCEPT steel braided hoses, like you'll see on some Hope models.

Materials: Anodised aluminium body, stainless steel cutting blades.

Pros: Makes the most annoying part about trimming hoses WAY easier than it used to be. Can also be used to cut gear cable outers to avoid ovalisation.

Cons: Quite expensive.
