Seen plenty people strip the threads on their hubs in the velodrome but only ever with their legs
I'm guessing a good big bloke can apply 2000N to the pedal at 170mm radius, so 340Nm at the crank, reduced to 102Nm at the hub by 50/15 gearing. I can easily hit the 110Nm required for van wheel bolts with the same torque wrench as I use for 1.37" cycle threads

All of it.
Seen plenty people strip the threads on their hubs in the velodrome but only ever with their legs, not arms.
