1/2 drive click type torque wrench for $9.99

Sounds like a great deal even at $19.99 but you get what you pay for!
I've heard a lot of bad reviews for HF tools.

Buying good tools is a lifetime investment.
I've had my torque wrench for 25 years now. I bought a good one and don't even remember how much I paid for it, but it's been totally worth having.
 
I cant trust this thing at only 19.99 . . .
 
I have one for my aluminum car rims, I dont like having the $200 tool rolling around the driveway while I change out rims.

Might be out of spec now

Even if they out of spec surely they are better than guesstimating with the wrist.

I have the princess auto torque wrench and the CT electronic adapter. I test them every year against a calibrated torque wrench and they are within 1ft-lb. I torque every bolt. Gives a piece of mind and avoids spripped and seized bolts.

Ding ding ding.
While I wouldn't trust a $20 wrench for torquing cam caps and heads onto cylinders, I would trust it for fork pinch bolts, axle nuts, caliper bolts, triple clamps etc.......you're gonna get a more accurate torque with a cheap wrench than you will with a basic ratchet, every time.

Did all of that for the past few years and they are still within spec. It's pretty hard for a torque wrench to go way off if you take proper care of it. If it really fails it's easy to tell. I threadlock most bolts anyways.
