I assume your not talking about the adjuster that comes with the bike as part of the tool kit?

This is the only tool that would work safely and effortlessly. I tried all other spring tools costing $30-150. Waste of money.

If you are around Wash DC, I would gladly swap the springs for you.

I compressed my shock with a tool for car springs. It worked but scratch the spring. It was a threaded tool so it was safe with holder so the tool wouldnt pop off. I was hoping it do it cheap because i will only us the tool once. Im installing a hyperpro combi set, just wish it would stop snow, its april !
