In this video I demonstrate that you can cut bicycle hydraulic hoses with simple equipment that many people have in there house/toolkit. No need for a special hose cutter.

About the 5MV channel
————————————–
My name is Terry and I love cycling. I have named my channel “Five Minute Velo” (5MV). I have called it 5MV because the videos I upload will (mostly) last no longer than five minutes. Each video will cover just one subject that is described in the title. Although the channel is mainly about cycling on the road, I will also cover some light (gravel) off road riding, cycle touring and ebiking. No matter what, much of the advice will be pertinent to many branches of the sport/pastime.
I welcome constructive comments that will help me improve the videos that I produce and upload.
There may be some dry humour in some of the videos, so dry it may not always be obvious :-).

Great informative video! Regarding squishing / deforming the hose while cutting it – I can recommend inserting a gear cable wire (or mechanical brake wire) into the hose before cutting it. That’ll avoid the hose deforming. Just make sure the end you’re inserting into the hose is flush and hasn’t frayed to avoid puncturing your hose from the inside.
