Subject: [CR]Bike Parts Torque Values - Suggestions?

The following list of suggested bolt/nut torque values came from an old copy of "The Third Hand" bike parts catalog. They can be reached at http://www.thethirdhand.com/ .

Are there any suggestions or additions?

BTW, I am not affiliated with the retailer...

All suggested values are expressed in Inch-Lbs (not sure of metric conversion). CAUTION - I am unsure whether these values vary depending on the part manufacturer or whether part is made of alloy or steel...
