Can anyone recommend a good bike specific torque wrench and where would I find the torque settings for all the various nuts and bolts?

look up your local yellow pages and find your local motor factor - a huge amount cheaper.

The [url= http://www.parktool.com/blog/repair-help/torque-specifications-and-concepts ]Park Tools[/url] website has advice regarding torque settings, and most component manufacturers list torque specs on their websites.

I've used a Norbar torque wrench for the last few years which adjusts between 1 and 20nm.

This one works for me. [url= http://www.cyclestore.co.uk/productDetails.asp?productID=20794&categoryID=722 ]Clicky[/url]

A lot of the torque tensions can be found on the components

Just clicked on that giant one above
Looks exactly the same as my BBB one. Apart from a very occasional getting stuck in the 'torqued click' where next time you use it you don't realise its gone past the torque you wanted its been excellent. The supplied 3,4,5,6,8,10,Torx25 bits seem better fits than any of my other tools including my previous best parktool allen key
