Monument vs Hilmor vs Rothenberger

Was after one of the old types with legs. But cheers for thinking of me

This Bahco bender looks like a quality tool...

Bit expensive though considering Rothenberger and Hilmor sell for around £60 on Amazon.

When buying any form of tool the simple solution is to stay away from rothenburger

I have 2 of the old Himor frame benders and only have the original steel formers, which are indestructible and just need to be rubbed with steel wool and oiled occasionally.
The steel formers are much heavier than the modern aluminium formers, but I much prefer the old type.

Bend it now that used to produce hilmors are the best I have found.

I've got my dad's old hillmor, about twenty years old. It's getting tougher bending 22mm, but that might be my age! I've also got his old tripod bender, bending 28mm is great fun.
