JC: Had been using unknown to me a faulty torque wrench for some time not made by park tool, bought this one, together with the larger torque wrench i never need anything else. Just make sure you hold it at the handle as it's tempting to hold it further up - this will give you a wrong torque reading and likely you will over tighten. Anyway works well with park tool socket set and I find these to be reliable.

MirZackMirZack: Almost 80% of bicycle torque value within the range from 2 to 14Nm hence this is a must tool to have. Easy to dial to require torque value and great handle. The only complain is that at the lower range value from 2 to 6Nm, the click is a bit soft.

Kevin D.: I’m not really sure how to address the accuracy of this tool... I lack calibrated standards. But it sure is easy to use and behaves exactly as I expected. I’ve been using this a lot for the last 4 months or so since I got a carbon bike frame which I built up. Couldn’t have done it without this. Goes from 2 Nm to max very quickly. The ratcheting head is a bit large for the occasional tight space, but it hasn’t ultimately kept me from torquing any bolt to spec. It’s been very clear across the torque range when that spec is reached due to the click. Seems like a good tool.

Jörg B.: Der Drehmomentschlüssel Park Tool TW-5.2 ist sehr gut und erfüllt meine Erwartungen vollkommen.
Er ist hochwertig verarbeitet und lässt sich optimal bedienen.
Allerdings stimmt die Produktbeschreibung bei Amazon nicht:
-Es handelt sich um eine 3/8 Zoll Umschaltratsche und nicht um "1/4“ Umschaltratsche mit Adapter für 3/8“ Stecknüsse"
-Es ist natürlich auch kein Adapter dabei
-Er ist auch nicht 19,5 cm sondern 23 cm lang
Auf der Seite von Park Tool ist alles korrekt beschrieben.
Wie gesagt ist das Produkt hervorragend. Nur die Beschreibung von Amazon ist fehlerhaft.

SS: I tried using the torque wrenches from harbor freight and home depot but they didn't seem to be torquing correctly. I will have to get them calibrated and see what is going on, luckily none of my parts snapped from trying to use them...

However, I finally just got the park tool version and it's perfect for all the common finer jobs like seatpost, handlebar, etc. Most other torque wrenches you find are on the upper end of torques mostly for auto parts. It was hard for me to find one that was specific for the bike components I needed.

I also got the additional park tool socket and bit set because even though I have alot of tools/bits, I didn't have a socket allen set and even then it was hard to keep everything together. Now it's all ready to go whenever I need to work on my bikes.

I didn't enjoy spending the money but honestly it made my build so much easier, confidence inspiring, and relieving, So for me, it was worth it and I wish I didn't spend extra money on the other wrenches. The park tool is also the easiest & smoothest to adjust of the 3 I have.

However, now that I'm more familiar with torque conceptually/practically, I think I would prefer a...

Aprettyhappyhome: The media could not be loaded.  I own both the TW-5 and TW-6 torque wrenches and thought I would point out that you really either need both of these wrenches or you will probably want one torque wrench with a longer continuous range. The TW-5 has a range of 26-132 inch pounds, the TW-6 has a range of 88-530 inch pounds. Meaning the TW-5 is going to be great for smaller projects like tightening bolts on brakes, shifters, etc. For bottom bracket, pedal, or crank work you are going to need to go with the larger TW-6 wrench as a procedure like replacing a Bottom Bracket will require anywhere from 450-600 inch pounds of torque.

Both of these tools come with nice hard plastic clamshell cases and instructions. The TW-5 comes with a 1/4 to 3/8 drive converter as it is a 1/4" drive ratcheting torque wrench.

Remember to dial these back to the minimum torque setting to preserve and maintain the calibration - and maybe most importantly don't loan them to anyone who doesn't know how to use a precision instrument with care... ;-)

So far these have both held up nicely and are a wonderful addition for my tool collection. They fully meet my bike repair/mechanical...
