^ Does anyone actually tighten pedals that tight? Prior to getting Vectors, I'm sure I didn't tighten them to even 25nm, and have never had a problem with a pedal loosening, or thread damage on a crank ( even with taking pedals on and off reasonably often for travel).

Bit of pressure on the end of a Park pedal wrench seems to work fine.
