Thanks for the video. This is a good product. Remember: NEVER use a torque wrench to loosen bolts. Use an Allen key or regular wrench. The left-hand setting is for bolts that tighten in an anti-clockwise direction. In order to maintain calibration longer, once you are done, return the torque wrench to its resting position (2Nm on this wrench).

Nice review. Good videography. Quick note, the extension bar does not provide more leverage.

Good catch. Extension just helps for those hard to reach bolts. Pro Bike Tool also has a 3/8 version of the torque wrench if you need a wider torque range (10-60).

Generally going larger will give you more options (you can always use a 3/8 to 1/4 converter). There are even 1/2" drivers, but unless your doing repair work on your car it's overkill for a bike. For smaller jobs like bike stems the 1/4" torque wrench is more than sufficient though.@@JitinMisra

Did you miss the part for the initial calibration? Before first use, there's a few actions to take. And about the conversion from Nm to the stranger/older/rarer units, or comes with a small leaflet that fits in the box. Also, the version I bought came with a lifelong guarantee and a manual calibration document with the measured Nm values, signed by hand, which shows their dedication to the product.

Nice, hope you enjoy it. I actually bought the torque wrench over a year ago myself before realizing it would be good to share a review on it. It's a great value but I do wish I had the black color version - we have a black Topeak Torq Stick and it looks pretty slick.

Thanks! Glad it could be useful. We've also reviewed the 3/8" variation (very similar - but with higher torque range) and their T-Torque wrench (convenient and compact) if you're looking for more details on their other tools.

Good point. We don't really have a calibrated torque tester to do the verification properly. If we do more torque wrenches we'll looking into buying one.

Does it need to be recalibrated after many use? I have a cheap unbranded TW and after few uses it doesn't seem to be accurate anymore it broke my stem bolt cause it keeps going even though i set it on 3nm it keeps going until the stem bolt snap, it didn't stop and no click sound.

We've been using the torque wrench for a few years now and haven't had any issues. As with any click type ratchet you'll want to store it in the lowest setting to prevent the spring from wearing out.

@@TheSweetCyclists ok Bro thanks for the reply, looks like this Pro torque wrench will be my choice.... About My unbranded torque wrench i always store it on 0 after use but still because it's unbranded the quality is not that good after few months it's not anymore accurate as brandnew but for Pro bike gear tool products i believe it's top notch quality of course it's a shimano brand😎👍

Is best to release at lower value in scale (2) or continue at the end of scale (so, theorically like a zero)?

I think you're asking what level to store the torque wrench at? What I've heard is to leave it at the lowest indicated value and not rotate past that to keep the wrench better calibrated over time.

That's also exactly what the manual says that comes with the wrench. Store it at 2Nm. Which also says to never use it below two.

1 N-m is relatively easy to feel with your hands. Basically just keep tightening until the bolt is all the way in and as soon as you start feeling a little bit of resistance stop.
