Feedback Range Click vs Topeak Torque Stick

I really like the Topeak Torque Stick, but it doesn't come with the range of bits that feedback one does, but feedback one, I'm not sure about the design, because you have to torque it, at the silver portion.
Am I better of getting the Topeak or feedback range click ?

TTS would be something i'd leave in the tool box. FSR I'd be more likely to stow within the bicycle.

Topeak Torque Stick Pro : 2 to 10 Nm torque range, 9 x bits, reversible ratchet head, sturdy case.

Feedback : 2 to 14 Nm torque range, 10 x bits, reversible ratchet head, soft case ( looks like ).

I would check your bike and see what fasteners you intend to torque and see if the sizes of bits offered and the torque ranges offered favour one or the other.

Don't worry one iota about the Feedback design where you say "you have to torque it at the silver portion". It's exactly the same with the Topeak one. The handle is where you put your hand and that is the standard correct method of operation of every torque wrench ever made.

If you don't need the extra range of the Feedback ( 11 to 14 Nm ), the bits offered don't sway you one way or the other, and you don't absolutely have to have the Feedback because it's red, then if you like the Topeak, go for it !

Damn it, I bought the Shimano Pro one already.

I am not sure about what is the OP's complaint about the design of the Feedback Sports one, or why that complaint does not apply to the Topeak one.

I've got that PRO torque wrench. You made a good choice.
