Yep. I went for the ratcheting head too. It’s quite an upgrade from my previous torque wrench which became woefully unreliable with its clicks - sometimes it clicked and sometimes it didn’t…

You got the Pro?

Received these this morning.I’m keeping one and the other I’ll give to a mate for his birthday.

both are awesome and worth the money to replace those plastic things.Just so easy to remove the valves now and not get your fingers knocked on the spokes????????

which one do I keep though ????????

Got tired of servicing the entry level Giant flat pedals on Maritz's bike .....

 

 

Got a nice set of "V8" DMR pedals at EvoBikes

Maritz saw "V8" .... and that was IT ..... ???? He is a Range Rover fanatic ....

 

You mentioned "got tired of servicing" and "range rover fanatic" in the same post. Well played.

Is this considered a saddle bag?

Yes. But if you strap it to your seatpost, then No.

It bolts directly to the saddle....

I had my bike upside down today, and for the first time noticed these bolt holes in the Phenom, upon googling, this is apparently what it is for.

If you have a chain breaker similar to pic, the little gap at the bottom fits perfectly around the valve head to allow you to unscrew/screw.

spoke spanner also works

Bought this for the missus. Best price I could find online, and it's BT and ant+

have never thought of using it, but now that you mention it, the one I have with multiple sizes would probably work perfectly.

I must try it.

I've been using the Stan's one for a good few years, only downside is that I sometimes struggle to get a grip on it when the valve core is stuck, maybe the PT will be better because of it's shape?

Ive seen those, but personally, I think the Varia looks extra awkward up there. It does have the World Tour data logger look to it though.
