I have a $120 Huffy cruiser bike arriving in a box from Walmart tomorrow. And note that that price point is because it's the deluxe model with rack, basket, and drink holder. Seat to put a Laz-E-Boy to shame.

To my horror the "easy to assemble" consumer-level instructions include needing a torque wrench, and give torque specifications for various parts. (Passive-aggressively not mentioning that this obscure and expert tool could cost more than their cheap bikes.)

I've decided that I'm neither spending $40 for the wrench, nor $75 having a local bike shop assemble the bike for me.

I'm wondering if it is conceivable for me to get a focused answer to the following question... without having the thread disintegrate into everyone's unkind opinions of Huffy bikes, Walmart, and the mortal sin of not having an LBS put your bike together:

After hand-tightening the bolts that hold the front wheel on, about how many more rotatations (or part thereof) should I turn the bolt with a wrench, to approximate 17-26nm (12-18 foot pound) of torque?

Thanks
