As it's using the e-thru standard, I've gone with Shimano's recommendation of 5-7Nm. I'm terrified of stripping the threads in the fork, or rounding the allen key hole as thru axles are not cheap to replace! I've had to dremel a slot to remove a stripped thru axle before, nervous job! It kinda weirds me out that there's no locking system to stop the axle just unthreading itself as well.
Why is it not an issue with the DT skewer?

@coldharbour Any idea of the thru-axle recommended torque? Can't find info on the columbus site.
