I've decided to take the plunge and buy a torque wrench specifically for my bike repairs. Questions:
From Shimano's guides I notice that recommend Torque settings run range from 5nm (44 in/lbs) for a
band on front mech clamp to 50-70nm (435-800 in/lbs) for a Bottom Bracket.
Is it possible to buy one Torque Wrench that is calibrated for such a range? Or do I need
to buy two?
Should I get 3/8" drive or 1/2" or does it matter?
Where in the UK sells an inexpensive but good one?
Wheres a good place to buy the socet adapters that convert from sockets to say an 8mm (or 4,5,6mm)
allen key?
Thanks for the info!
cheers,
