I'm looking for a beam torque wrench (for carbon seatpost, handlebar...). Anyone knows a good one?
The only one I have found so far is the Park Tool 1/4" but its range is 0-6.8 Nm and most of my bolts are rated 8 or 10 Nm. The bigger Park Tool 3/8" has a 0-68 Nm range (graduated every 50 in.lb) so is not exactly what I want.
So is there a torque wrench with a range of roughly 0-10 Nm (or 0-100 in.lb)?

This one is popular with some of the guys on the cycling weekly forums - BBB TORQUEFIX http://www.webstersbikes.co.uk/products.php?plid=m2b0s72p647

It does 2 - 24nm

I would prefer a beam type as it is easy to recalibrate and you can get a "feel" of what torque you are applying (instead of just waiting for the click), but as they don't seem very common, I may end up buying the BBB.

Problem with the beam types is that they're hard to get into some parts of the bike. The BBB one is compact and can be used just about anywhere on the bike. My personal preference is for Park Tools kit, but their version is a bit big.
