Torque Wrench
I am looking for a torque wrench, for lower values NM specifications. Is 2-10 nm sufficient or should I get 2-14nm ?
I've narrowed down three, and I really like the Topeak Stick 2-10nm and Feedback Sport Range and park tools tw5.2
I like the Topeak because feel like it's size might make it easy to get to harder to reach places, and it looks slick, but I feel like I miss out on the 11-14nm like on the feedback sport range and park tools 5.2.
I only ride road and hybrid bikes, with that in mind, what torque specs do i need for the lower values, and which tool do you recommend ? I definitely want something with 2nm upward.
Thank You.

I have a 2-8 and compact 0-10. If you can swing the cost get the 2-14. The Feedback is Nice and compact. It also comes with bits.
The Park would be for keeping in the shop.
