TIL I've been over-tightening quick-release skewers for years
A customer's front wheel came loose on a test ride, and my boss pointed out I was cranking them to 10 Nm instead of just snug. What's your go-to method for setting QR tension?

Heard a podcast say snug can actually damage threads over time.
