Yes, I will long term but at the moment isn't the right time so I am trying to get by without having to. I am actually thinking about selling off all my tools so I actually don't want to add to the mix at the moment, and I don' think it's something worth carrying while on the road.
As for my seat post, I don't see realistically ever really doing that because of how much I pop seats in and out, move them, want to yank it at a store to feel safer, etc... The stem I can see wanting to do right. I never get them right anyway. That's a good spot I didn't really think has as much value as I originally thought until you brought it up.
So if I did have a torque wrench, so far, stem and 6 bolt rotor are two places, I personally would do and feel better about torquing "if" I had it.
