Torque Wrench

[gambatte]

Thought about getting a small one for bike maintenance. Its not going to get loads of use, so ideally won't cost a small fortune.
Anyone got any recomendations and/or details of what torque range I should be looking for?

I was looking too but the small ones starting at 5nm are very expensive compared to the large ones which are no good for the lower torque range on most bike components.

If you type "torque wrench" into the search box (top right), you will find lots of views.

I searched aeons ago for something suitable for car maintenance and ended up with Clarke wrenches from machine mart.. Surely finger tight is suibtable for anything lower than they can measure?

I have a BBB Torque wrench which is similar to the BTL-73 showing on the BBB website. Seems to work okay.
