Not too familiar with torque specs on carbon fiber components but sounds as if you may need a wrench that goes down to in/lbs. I can see where they might be easy to destroy.

Seat tubes and front stems in particular. No bike components are made in English sizes any more, at least not high end stuff. This one is most likely what I will buy: Park Tools 3-15 NM (= 26-132 Inch Lbs)
