[QUOTE="K_Flyer, post: 1417603, member: 89366"] 50% chance of a right guess. My experience mirrors the comments above where the loosening torque is higher than the tightening torque. The front axle bolt loosened at about 65 NM (vs the tightening spec of 91). I did not check the pinch bolts with a torque wrench but did loosen them with an ordinary Allen key. Seems much less than 21NM. I did loosen all the bolts, then followed the book procedure. Yes, I did check the caliper bolts up to the spec torque and they were okay. Fred, I think you may be right. Since I can't reasonably do all the work myself, and you are far away, maybe we should sell both bikes. [/QUOTE]
