If its Hael its either Irn Bru or Buckfast not Diet Cock.

Why would I want 6 cans of Diet Coke?

even worse, caffeine free!

Anyone know of a decent torque wrench at a reasonable price?

Amazon.com: Classic Needle-Style 0-150 Ft-Lb Torque Wrench - Dual 3/8" & 1/2" Drive - SAE & Metric: Home Improvement

TW2 (beam wrench style with gauge)

Is there any UK alternative to the £38 Park TW1 (+ £31 SBS1 bit set) for the low range (~3-8 Nm)?

I'm guessing the high range beam-type wrenches like the TW2 or the £8 one on Amazon are hard to read accurately in the low range and click-type wrenches won't be accurate at the low end. Just picked up a carbon frame that needs a few tweaks and looking at over £100 for a couple of wrenches to cover a useful range.

Another good Chain Tool:

the writing definately makes it better on here.

The instructions are bi-lingual + visual, not sure if that makes it better or worse:

This stuff is amazing for help with getting things clean (especially on sticker gunk). Doubt it's very eco though - thanks to the guys at Harry Hall for putting me onto it last weekend:

saved my day loads of times, reliable, and works a treat. ive dispensed with the saddle bag now and just have it in one of my jersey pockets.

Haha brilliant! Cost of building tall bike and risking gnarly hip breakage: oooh loads. Riding said bike round Picadilly Circus in the buff: priceless.

Just bought these from the States and having it brought home for free. £69.80 for the pair!

Fark!! Thats a bargain

Not so fast...

Dunno how they managed that mine has survived years of mis-use by my brother.

I'd want those fuckers camoflagued as well!

also

probably the longest lasting £10 ever spent, got mine years ago, all still good to go, no rounding or anything.

Just received Cyclus headset press... gets good reviews, hope it lives up to them.

**This is one of the best torque wrenches for cycle spannering on the market, in my humble opinion .
First used Norbar torque wrenches many years ago in the Army. A British company
and I have very good customer service from them in the past.

Seen them online from £60 and up
