- ideal torque range, 2-16 Nm (17,7-141,6 inch-pound)
this is the best torque range for precision bicycle applications and 'sensitive' components. 2 Nm is good for small aluminum screws, 16 Nm is enough for big M6 bolts used in some seatposts. A wider scale wouldn't allow the same precision at the range extremes. In use, always refer to the suggested (on technical documentation or on the part itself) torque values; - extremely user-friendly: - set the maximum torque rotating the handle terminal, reading the torque on the tool-window (graduate scale with 0,5 Nm increments);
- insert the appropriate bit (depending on the bolt you need to tighten)
- using the tool, a loud 'CLICK' and a 3° free-movement tells when the torque has been reached
- ready to use, with 16 bits included:
16 bits (standard 1/4" inch size fitting) are provided with the key, allowing to use the torque-wrench on almost any screw present on modern bicycles. A 70mm long '5' hex bit allows to tighten road-brake levers recessed bolt. All bits are manufactured from S2 special steel, with very high (62 Hrc) surface hardness, to ensure maximum durability; - lightweight & strong:
the light aluminum body keeps the weight down to a record-breaking 169g per key, less than half the weight of heavy industrial wrenches often used for bicycles. This is paramount to get the right torqueing sensitiveness at low torque values, without mistaking the effort to hold the tool with the applied torque. Adjustment knob and bit-holder are made out of steel, to better stand daily use  setting the desired torque (Nm) could not be easier
