^because when the alloy Formula lockring strips it's thread or rounds off it's notches, they have a get out that says "did you tighten it to 40nm?" implying you either under or overtightened it when it reality it's just a shit lockring.
No other quality lockring has torque settings printed on it but the shittiest cheapest one available does.
Yeah it does seem made out of plastic in terms of how sturdy it is, or how the notches are holding up. Hopefully I've had the Dura-Ace lockring through the post when I get home (actually its from Hubjub so I know it will there). I emailed Formula and I'll post if they have anything interesting to say but yeah, the explanation about the get out clause makes a lot of sense since there isn't actually a way to measure the torque...
