Just to add, a torque wrench was the 1 tool I never thought I needed, until I got one, now I use it virtually every single time I work on the bike. Just get one! Your bike will work better and last longer if you remove the guesswork out of tightening nuts & bolts. I was surprised to see just how much I was over-tightening everything, and I am not ham-fisted at all.

A ham fisted dentist? Never, not possible  :w00t:

Spend the money. Skimping is like putting Chinese tyres on your Lambo.

I got the BBB one from Sportsmans warehouse online, does the job and didnt break the bank.

 

 

Also got the BBB one from the bike shop.  Works just fine (for 5 years so far).  It also happens to look identical to the TAQ one mentioned above, so I imagine it's just a different sticker.
