Re the Topeka torque wrench: it’s super valuable for flying with carbon bikes. It’s small and light enough to keep the bike box under the weight limit for airlines (10oz less than the park tool one you showed). I’m always ounces away from overage fees, so every little bit counts. Even saving one overage fee is less than the price of the wrench.

I feel the magnet/metal side of the action cam mount should be bright pink or something. As in the area that becomes hidden once attached. It would be useful for crashes where the thing goes flying.

Hey Seth - the Topeak torque/ratchet set is made for a highly specific market, which is why I'm sure you're confused as to why this particular niche of tools exists. It's intended for bikepackers, those who plan on traveling for extended tours away from towns where they might find small bike shops, where the use of a torque wrench would eventually become mandatory over longer trips (especially when making frequent adjustments to higher end carbon bikes, e.g. seat clamps, stems on carbon bars). The more you pay for the bikepacking rig, the more precision is required in maintaining it - hence the hefty price tag. I've recommended them and similar mini torque wrench/ratchet combo kits to many bikepackers here in the South Island of New Zealand, for example, where people are due to start a month long tour and need an all-encompassing kit for 80%-90% of their repairs, and where every gram saved means more water or calories can be carried. Park Tool is fantastic for home or workshop use, I use Park daily as a mechanic, but I wouldn't be lugging a ATD-1.2 with me next to my sub 500g sleeping system and single pair of merino socks (you know how those weight weenies think) Totally agree about losing bits though - I always take a mini tool as a backup in case my bits get lost during a trip. P.s. as a mech, I'd love to see you review a Wera kit someday, best tools I've ever used and they're getting more dominant in the bike industry. I'd send one in myself but bike mechanics are poor, sometimes I have to steal food from customer's top tube bags for sustenance. TImes are tough.
@wanderer22463 ай бұрын
In my world, backpacking and expensive things are opposites (unless they are supper robust). This small torque wrench is definitely not more robust than the full-size one (plus vibrations will kill any appropriate accuracy of non-fixed torque wrench). For bikepacking I'd just take a couple of fixed torque keys. Or just one and torque paste. I cannot understand how mechanic who is making money for food justifies unjustifiably expensive things. Its a nice thing as a gift, as it was said, no more/

I would also say, just get a norbar. Phenomenal torque wrenches and truly the best to work with/work on/ and maintain. Edit: also would love to get ahold of the airpod leashes.

When I worked at a bike shop in the early 80s we used a very similar stand to that Topeak one. Ours were mounted on rectangular wood boxes the length of a bike with some shelf angles at the front to hold the front wheel straight. The box put the bike up at a better working height. We called them 6 day stands. We had a welder make the upright and stay holders. Covered in cloth bar tape they worked really well. Been thinning about having one made for my outside cleaning station. This Topeak thing might be nicer.

The Topeak Torq rocket mini is running around $110 Australian dollars which seems more reasonable. Given Australia is generally much more expensive, surprised to hear the US $169 price tag.

Seth, please try to remove a Sram cassette with the cassette tool to see if it is possible. I personally think it depends on the shapes and space depending on which bike you have. Very interesting that tool. I recently bought a portable torque wrench, it is twice the seize of the 1 in your video. No bits comes with it but I got extra bits that fit in the case so I can tight and torque whatever and don't have to worry
