GIUSTAFORZA
Torque Wrench by Effetto Mariposa
The
Giustaforza (Italian for Correct
Force) is a nifty little torque
wrench that accepts the same bits as a cordless
screwdriver. Your replacement bits are readily
available at any hardware store. The GiustaForze torque wrench
features rotating adjuster, a graduated torque scale, and the
head clicks over when the torque setting has been reached. The scale
goes from 2 Newton-meters to 16 Nm in 0.5 Nm increments. It does not
have a ratcheting head.
Works great with Carbogrip Friction Spray.
Both
CyclingNews.com and
Velonews.com rave about the GiustaForza wrench!

....None
of this would be worth squat if the
Giustaforza wasn't accurate, and we're
pleased to report that it is within a
scant 0.5Nm of a far more expensive
digital model from Snap-On and easier to
use to boot. So let's recap here: small,
neatly designed, accurate, reasonably
priced… hell, the thing even looks good,
as one would expect of something
designed and made in Italy.

carbogrip
Friction Spray
Carbogrip Spray
While a torque wrench
is essential when working on your bicycle, if
you have carbon parts, Carbogrip is also
a necessity especially when those parts refuse to stay
fixed respecting the recommended torque
specifications.
Carbogrip is the perfect complement to
your torque wrench. It is
a special high-molecular weight silicone resin that, sprayed on
your part before assembling it,
polymerizes (within 3 to 5 minutes)
into a grippy surface with the following characteristics:
-
Prevents part
slippage and the dangerous, normal reaction when a seatpost or
handlebar slip at the recommended torque value: overtorqueing
the bolts!
-
Facilitates clamping
of smooth carbon parts (handlebars, seatposts, aerobar
extensions..)
-
Polymer features
anti-seize properties, allowing an easy component removal when
needed
-
Works great as
threadlock (steel, titanium, aluminum, carbon bolts)
-
Waterproof
and sweat-proof
-
Very easy to use: no
need for brushes as with other assembly pastes/liquids.

generous 24-32mm diameter size range. The hex-shaped shaft should
