Torque is a function of strength and weight of the rider. Simply put, strong guys make a lot of torque. Heavy guys make a lot of torque. Heavy guys that are strong make a helluva lot of torque.
I've always been a heavy guy. I was a 195 lb HS athlete...and got heavier after I graduated. When I rode single-speed and fixed gear street bikes, I'd have to use tensioners simply because I'd pull wheels when driving hard up hills and whatnot. So, that abnormally high torque was more a function of my weight than my power.
