Tricoflex hose reel

[997.1]

I have 50m of tricoflex and cannot bring myself to pay £500 for a reel

Any cheaper options? Or will I just have to cough up?

Does it really need a special reel? And what type of reel?

It's just hose at the end of the day, Tricoflex Hozelock stuff goes perfectly well on the normal reels.

If you're looking at a £500 reel then it must be because you want the nice shiny, not because you *need* it?

Same thoughts.

Unless its 1" ID rather than the usual half inch or something?
