convert lbs/inch to N/m

You get:

1 pounds force / inch = 175.126835 Newtons / meter

I got the 745 lbs/in fromt the Specialized Website as the BB stiffness for the S-Works Tarmac. I'm trying to convert it the the measurement which Tour Mag uses NM per degree, any help?

It's 83.608 NM.

I'm not sure its possible, without knowing the distance at which the measurement is taken.

At the moment you are trying to convert a force to deflect a linier displacement to a force to deflect a angular displacement.

With the distance to displacement measured the then a angular displacement can be calculated and then its just the force that needs its units converted.
