The average rider probably cannot produce more torque than their weight that way. A quick search indicates that professional cycling sprinters can generate slightly over 100 ft-lb of torque. The average rider won’t be producing anything close to that. (Hard to find anything definitive, though.) If you aren’t standing up sprinting, you’re definitely not going to be getting anything close to your “body weight torque”.
