My brother (the more mechanically minded of the family) visited recently, and commented on the overtightening of bolts in general.
"*if it wanted a fking thousand cting newtons putting on it. It would'nt have a fking piss small allen bolt on it. If you have to jump up and down on it like a tw*t, someones fked up!"*
