Sports: Re: [DucatiST] Shiny New Clutch

Hmmmm...Wheeler FAT torque wrench...wonder where else you might be using it? I have one too...for scopes and such! Handy tool!

But for anyone who does a lot of wrenching on modern bikes. they need a good 1/4", 3/8" low end torquerange, 3'/8" upper end torque range and a 1/2" drive torque wrench. You need to try and keep used torque ranges in the ~middle third or so of a wrench's torque range. Upper end, you're straining since you don't have the length, lower end you are too inaccurate and you lose the "feel" of the wrench with the longer arms on smaller nuts-n-bolts.

What do you all use for light torque settings on the bike?
Torque screwdriver, mine's a Wheeler F.A.T. wrench.

Torque screwdrivers are surprisingly useful, I use it for mountain biking wrenching,

since you'd rather have your brake mount spin than break off when it hits the ground.
