A good Torque wrench is an invaluable tool for any bike mechanic. Basically every bolt on your bike will have a torque setting, and exceeding this can have disastrous consequences! On this week's GCN Tech show, Ollie & Alex talk to someone who really knows their stuff - Park Tool's director of education; Calvin Jones - to talk torque.
