Looks remarkably similar to my Teng tools one that cost a hell of a lot more than that....

I'd say yes. Learn how to use it before you do, though. A lot of people use torque wrenches and wait for the click, well in their case the click is the head of the bolt snapping off. Wink

By the way, 25 Nm is not enough for the jobs you really should use a torque wrench on.

You'll need one. My CG125 is supposed to have 77Nm on the rear wheel axle. I only put 70 and that feels very tight. So I expect it will be more than that on a big bike.

Near the top end of the range I find its only reads around 5nm out too, which isn't bad at all.

I'd bet my left bollock that the Teng is twice as accurate.

I picked up a Sealey one from Toolstop £30, 27.1-203.5Nm(20-150lb.ft)
