That sure looks slick, I do not know anything about Powerbuilt tools.

Where are they made?

How is the Powerbuilt reputation?

This works good to calibrate your existing torque wrench. But if you want to use it as a torque wrench, you'd better have plenty of space above the fastener you're trying to tighten. Good technology, though. And $50 is the right price. Powerbuilt is part of the Alltrade family of tool companies, which includes the consumer grade Snap-On stuff showing up in Costco and hardware stores.

Thanks for the insights 74JP, access is common Norton issue, I gave up on T-wrenches and just measure the ones that matter most, rod bolt stretch.
Neat tool though darn it.

You would still need two (one of each torque ranges) at least to cover most work on bikes.
