Review on πŸ”§ Park Tool ATD-1.2 Adjustable Torque Driver for 4-6Nm – Improved SEO by Tony Reid

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A Simple Tool for an Important Purpose

I like the cam release action of this tool compared to the smooth click release of some ratchet wrenches. As soon as it reaches the set torque value, it switches off. I use this cam trigger for most adjustments and need a simple torque adjustment. Its shape doesn't lend itself to tight spaces or adding extensions, but I think it's good for handlebar and seatpost adjustment. The torque range from 4 to 6 in 1/2Nm increments is unusual and suits the needs of my Giant bike. I can manually turn the knurled adjustment knob from 4 to 5.5, but to get to 6 I need an allen wrench. It's expensive due to its limited torque band, but it's priced similarly to the competition, and I trust the Park brand. At the end of the day, for more complex repairs that require more torque, I might buy another tool. But that's the world of tools, the right tool for the job - easy to obtain and use for everyday tasks. Built like a tank - a little heavy
