Started preparing my standard rear shock for some cake-balancing pre-load adjustment.
Penetrating oil etc.
The rear isn't working well with the beefed up front end and my current weight.
Thought the task through, considering the necessary spring compressors, C-spanners, work benches etc. and thought I'd better see if any soul here has had any success.
So apparently not.
Â
So instead, next w/e, I will be mainly saving my time, knuckles and money (for a new shock instead of tools), by dropping the front end a tad to match the current, cake induced rear end sag and increasing the damping by a click or two.
Hopefully finding a suitable temporary middle ground and buying me some time to shed a few kilos.
