• I don't like that jagwire thing, hard to position the crimpy bit on some short cable ends, I just squish them with the squishy bit on the park tool cutters, then give them an extra little pinch in the middle with the jaw under the squishy bit to make sure they're secure. That's bit for squishing, not bit that is squishy.

    Added photos because I'm bored and waiting for someone. In reverse order apparently.

  • I've never used it but thought it looked good in the video - I'll continue using my method of squishing them with whatever pair of pliers is on hand.

    Also works well. Doing it like I do means I know I've probably looked at the bike before if the cable ends are like that, if they're not I can safely blame someone else when bits fall off.
