The shortest tube is also the most precise: with less tube between your hand and the tip, the steering feels direct and the tip goes exactly where you point it.

A tube that is too short cannot do the job at all, while a longer tube only costs you a little steering feel.

It goes into hot engine bays, past sharp casting edges and around tight bends while the handset sits safely in your hand.
