Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Bike Torque Wrench Set: 1/4 Inch Drive, 2-14 Nm - Bicycle Tool Kit for MTB Mountain & Road Bikes with Allen Key, Torx Sockets & Extension Bar by Joseph Hall

Warning: This Torque Wrench Won't Work

This Torque Wrench comes with a Certificate of Accuracy that cannot be trusted. After tightening the bolt on my bike to 6Nm more than I could believe (no drivetrain slippage), I tightened the fitting in my desktop vise and cranked the crank as hard as I could (to the point, which the 4mm bit I used warped) and never slipped like a torque wrench should. I intend to return this item as defective and cannot in good conscience recommend this product to anyone. I then used a Park Tools torque wrench, which actually stops tightening at 6Nm. So now I have a new bike with a re-tightened seat post. I'm really surprised the seatpost didn't break from over tightening with that poor quality wrench. Luckily the seat was at my ideal height when overtightened. I'm afraid to loosen it at this point for fear the correct applied torque will no longer hold the post properly.

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Not Sure
