Topeak Torque 5/6


Topeak have added to their tool line, with more highly useful tools for the shop or home mechanic. It’s not only light weight parts that have specific torque requirements when fitting and adjusting – just about every part on your bike has a recommended maximum force.

Topeak have two preset torque tools for 5Nm and 6Nm, and both come with 4, 5 and 6mm allen key heads plus T25 Torx heads. This should cover most uses for stems, handlebars and seatposts, probably the parts that get adjusted the most. Best of all, the sockets are kept in the handle, minimizing the chance that you will lose them.

PRICE 39.95$
