   I agree.   
      
   Thank you for confirming roughly about 100 foot pounds is all a typical male   
   arm can do on a typical six to eight inch socket wrench lever.   
      
   That means nobody is breaking those 17mm steel caliper bolts or stripping   
   the threads on those thick calipers when they skip the torque wrench.
