Requests:

Matthieu: I wanted to propose a tutorial on how to know how much force to apply when tightening everything down. Newton-meters don’t mean much to a newbie like me.

Andrew: Be sure to include a disclaimer as someone will no doubt destroy a $10k bike doing something stupid like over-torquing carbon.

Status:

We need a torque wrench before I can produce this tutorial. Any bike shop or company who is willing to donate a tool for this tutorial will receive brand exposure in exchange. Contact me if you are interested.
