Torque to me about wrenches

DiscoBoy

I hope you liked my title

So what is everyone using?

I'm thinking of buying one, but I notice that bicycle specific ones only tend go up to 15N, which isn't very helpful when a cassette lockring wants 40N.

Doesn't really matter (that much) what torque you do up the cassette, way more important is handlebar/stem/seat post clamp torque, especially if they're carbon.

I use the BBB one which I've had for a few years and works fine, however the Richey torque key would do for most applications.

40 Nm on the BB and Cassette is just 'man tight'! I have a torque wrench that does 40 Nm that I use on the car wheel nuts but never use it to tighten the cassette lock ring and only use it on the BB because it's there!

This lot'll see you right for everything else....

Bought mine from Machine Mart
I havent found one that does from 5 to 40+ nm in one wrench
I had to buy 3 to cover the ranges I use them for.
