I need to pick up a torque wrench for setting the rear wheel nut. I also need to set the main bracket bolt on my bursig stand. Currently this is set to tight-ish (set with adjustable wrench and a rubber mallet as I did not have a socket big enough (I know, cringe worthy and I should know better). The rear wheel nut is 34mm (100nm) and the bursig nut is 24mm (150-200nm). With a 34mm socket I would normally go with a 3/4 socket size but the torque value is quite low. There is quite a big price diff between the 1/2 and 3/4 sockets and torque wrenches. What are you guys using?

I was thinking of getting Teng

I would take the Bursig to a garage/dealers and ask them to torque it up. then get a smaller wrench for the rear axle.
