I can''t get a hold of the special tool required to adjust the rear suspension, does anyone know where I can find it? What is it called ? (English is not my main language).

Is there any other way to adjust the rear suspension? (Pics would be awesome :))

Greetings

The tool is called a spanner wrench. I made one out of 1/4 steel and a torch. look on ebay search for spanner wrench. there is a screw on the base of the shock that controls the valves. open = faster recovery but less damping, closed = more damping and slower recovery.

If you go to tools and see item 5, it''''s the spanner I need right?
