Can someone please tell me what size socket is needed to adjust the front preload on the XBs? I'm going by the hardware store on my way home and don't have that info.

Tried to search the archives, but must not be using the right keywords.

Thanks!

I think it is 7/8. You can use a wrench it turns very easily.

It's actually a 22mm, but yes it does turn rather easily with a wrench.
