Today's Superstar deal. Thought I'd try one out at that price.
Ordered. Worth a shot at that price, thanks for the PSA!
Cheers ordered also
Thanks OP, worth a go at that.
Bought on a whim too!!!! Thanks for posting.
thanks - I don't have one and always paranoid. worth the outlay of 25 for assurance
Nice PSA, many thnaks just ordered for the tool kit in the car.
Ordered! Nice one OP.
Ordered one as I don't have one that goes down that low. Many thanks for posting
Another whim purchase here - thanks for the PSA.
The superstar torque wrenches are exactly the same as these [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/pedros-demi-torque-wrench/rp-prod31342?utm_source=Google&utm_medium=Shopping&utm_name=UnitedKingdom&gs=1&ds_e_ad_type=pla&gclid=COr11MS51MICFSX4wgodtDAAKg&gclsrc=aw.ds ]£100 Pedros Torque Wrenches[/url], good value at £25 indeed but remember to store it unwound and don't force it further once you hear/feel the [i]torque click[/i]
Ooh, very good PSA that one, thanks
At least I know what my daughter is getting me for Christmas now 😀
They have [s]cost[/s] saved me so much money this month with these deals.
🙂
Nice one! The X-Tools one I just ordered,without bits for similar price, will be going back 😀

What do you mean store it unwound? Do you mean store at the 2nm setting?
Yep me too - at that price even if it lasts a year it will be worth it
Thanks OP
Cheers for this .. ordered
Hmmm i might has we'll have my wages paid direct to superstar and on-one tbh.
If that's as low as it goes, then yes Rik. Leaving them at a particular setting is not good for them, when I worked on aircraft engines, FAA auditors liked to check out TR's, if they were left on toolboards at a setting, they'd pull you up, as it meant that the thing had the potential to under torque.
Cheers OP
Its £44 😐 am i late?
Edit.. Ahh XMAS20 duh!
You have to put the XMAS20 code in
What do you mean store it unwound? Do you mean store at the 2nm setting?
Yep, exactly that or just below the 2nm setting.
And before you use the wrench for the first time i suggest you wind it up to 14nm and [i]exercise[/i] it perhaps 3 or 4 times to the full torque capacity before use, and when applying a set torque to a bolt/stud/nut it is always preferable to [i]pull[/i] the wrench towards you * .
* - standard best practice in use

Also the same as the [url= http://www.amazon.co.uk/BBB-2-977-457-301-Torque-Spanner-BTL-73/dp/B004P8ITCO/ref=sr_1_2?s=sports&ie=UTF8&qid=1419078950&sr=1-2&keywords=torque+wrench ]BBB one[/url] that goes for a slightly more reasonable £45.
I am tempted to get one of these, but my Ritchey torque key does most of the things I would want torquing up.
....still, at £25.....tempting.
Good shout many thanks . Just need some loose nuts around the house now.
120gbp to Thailand, I'm out
Good shout op ordered, cheers
....still, at £25.....tempting.
I also have the Ritchey key, but am weaker willed - ordered, 'coz... er... Christmas!
Thanks, [b]burnsybhoy[/b]!
Bloomin heck, superstar are doing very well out of me this winter, that's the 3rd order this month..so far
Top Man, many thanks. My own secret Santa.
Nice, I already have one for higher torque settings, but this is perfect for things like carbon bars which need less than 10Nm
All gone, out of stock now
I'd like to join the queue if anyone decides not to keep theirs..
I'm still waiting fir my pedals after that last PSA.. got the email saying they've been dispatched, but nothing here yet.. 😥
These PSA threads seem to be all torque, no trousers...
DrP
Missed out! And a torque wrench was on my Christmas list.
What torque for steerer tubes?
Glad this helped a few people out. To be honest someone else would put up this PSA if it hadn't be me, I was just sitting in the office at work bored. So I ordered one and thought I'd share, this forum as I've bought some good some bargains on here with various PSA threads.
Who needs Hotukdeals!!
Teetosugars - MemberI'm still waiting fir my pedals after that last PSA.. got the email saying they've been dispatched, but nothing here yet..
There's something wrong with superstar's emailing- I got a dispatch email the morning after I ordered my wheels, and then another one a week later when it was actually dispatched
I ummed and arred for long enough for it to go out of stock.
Not sure how I feel, to be honest.

Do you need to torque about it with someone?
Do you need to torque about it with someone?
Probably should do. I guess it was more gut-wrenching than I thought it would be.
I thought you seemed a bit up-tight.
What torque for steerer tubes?
It often says on the stem, usually around 10nm or so.
I'm not sure if you need less for a carbon steerer, I've done mine tight enough so it doesn't slip but not much tighter, so will re-torque once mine arrives.
1/4" drive, 5-25Nm £31.80
