Here’s the Week in Tech — all the gear news, tips, and announcements you need and none of the marketing gibberish you don’t.

Silca strikes again with lust-worthy new tools

Silca adds to its line of premium bike tools and pumps with a new five-position multi-ratchet tool called the T-Ratchet and a torque measuring extender called the Ti-Torque. The Indianapolis-based company rolled out a Kickstarter campaign to fund the development and manufacturing of these two new portable tools. With 19 days still to go in the campaign, Silca has raised more than $200,000, crushing the company’s original goal of $25,000.

The five-position T-Ratchet weighs 60 grams and magnetically converts between a T-handle tool, a thumb-stabilized ratchet tool, and a flag-handled screwdriver. It uses a Silca-designed, 72-tooth ratchet mechanism for a refined engagement. The Ti-Torque tool is a 100mm-long extender for the T-Ratchet and displays torque measurements on its side; it is capable of measuring 0-8Nm torque readings.
