As above, not too expensive but suitable for bikes.
Thank you.

I have a generic brand x one which is basically sold under many different names. Prob the same as the superstar version.

Its ok, but I showed it to the guy at my local tool shop and he said it was a very cheap bit of kit.

He showed me a sealey which was 15 quid cheaper and looked far better. Same torque range as well.

I got one of these a few weeks ago, only used it on a couple of bikes so far (mainly pivot bolts after a bearing replacement strip and rebuild) and it seems to be ok. Never bothered with one before but these weren't my bikes I was tinkering with so thought I'd give it a go.

But what is torque? Is it like power, or acceleration? Can you feel it?
