Reviews over the

BBB Cycling Fastcut BTL-16

Have taken it because with ordinary cutters you squeeze the cable flat, and with these it stays nice and round

Pros & Cons

pliers do exactly what you expect them to do.

Pros & Cons

Works well for cutting cables to size.

Pros & Cons

Fijne tang, goede grip. Vooral wanneer je gewend bent om te klooien met de knijptang is dit een enorme vooruitgang, onmisbaar voor de thuisklusser

Pros & Cons

The pliers meet all expectations, wasn't sure if you could also cut the outer jacket with them, but this also goes very smoothly. They do get slightly flattened but there is a special opening between the handle with which you can make the outer cable round again. As a final step, you can also use the pliers to clamp the end caps onto the inner cable.

Pros & Cons

Cuts gear cables with ease, without using force. Ensures beautifully straight cut cables. Some puzzling, though, as to which of the parts to use to attach end cap. This is not mentioned in the user manual or anything similar.

Pros & Cons

Fine pliers, cuts cable and cable housing tightly!

I have been putting cables on my bikes for years and I could do it with the pliers from the toolbox, but this is a fine tool that cuts the cables nicely in one go without fraying, which is much nicer. No more reworking or twisting loose wires! And finally I can secure the barrels to the cable ends without cutting them or losing them again anyway.
