Recommend Me a Torque Wrench

[ebarker9]

I haven't bought a set yet, but I think that the fixed torque driver style wrenches make a lot of sense for 80% of bike stuff such as:

I find that, especially with some of the bolts that have shallower engagement, it's a little unnerving trying to hold a click type wrench so that the bit doesn't cam out. Seemingly the fixed torque drivers would address this as you're better able to apply force in line with the bit to keep it from shifting.

Edit: now get off my lawn.

kind of irrelevant without the appropriate gif...

For cheaper options the harbor freight ones seem to be ok, that being said I did snap a bolt on my pivot with one 🤔

My neighbor who is a mechanic recommended SK Tools as a quality alternative to Snap On. There is also this place Eppy's on Rt 9 in Howell that my neighbor recommended who sells SK Tools and other brands as well. I needed some new tools for my Sprinter and they were very helpful in helping me decide what to purchase. https://www.eppys.com/

eppys is good, sk is good but you may have issues trying to locate sk tools. supply chain issues combined with them doing a entire warehouse/factory move mid pandemic has sent their supplies and stock into a tailspin for several months now.
