Review on ๐Ÿ”ช Efficient Cutting with Jagwire Pro Housing Cutter: Enhance Precision and Speed by Robert Lee

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great tool for cycling

A while ago I replaced all the cables on my commuter bike and used old wire cutters from my tool kit. It was ok but definitely not perfect. It was my fucking passenger, so whatever. Then the cable on my racing bike snapped during a ride. I figured I would replace all the gears/brakes and cables. I also decided to use a special tool with an awl in the handle to make the job easier. This tool did not disappoint. Trim everything carefully and the awl will expose the cut ends in the body which have been flattened during the cutting. For the record, I used a Shimano SP41 sheath/cable kit for the gears and a Shimano DA 9000 kit for the brakes. The result was clockwork shifting and very responsive braking.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Faulty
