There's plenty out there & I've used alot of different one's.

I've got a stahlewille one here which right up there. The Hazet one is top shelf bloody awesome,as it would be with a $1+K price tag!

There's ones like KC Tool's which are based & identical to the snap-on one's & are pretty good value.

My recommendation is to by a roll of brake pipe (3/16?) & just practise on your flaring & bending skill's.

Once you work out how it all work's properly, it doesn't really matter what tool you use, as long it it is good working condition.

got a set of brake pads now so ill be able to finish off the brakes and ill be able to stop again lol. tip for free the pads listed on the Bendix website for the 288mm brakes is wrong and the pads are actually for the 280mm rotors.
