>>1247512That's some interesting suspension. When did suspension become the norm for mountain bikes?
Anyway, I bought it used off a guy who bought it new for $600. He wrecked his Corvette and needed quick cash. Paid him $300. That was quite a bit of money for me at the time, working as a refueling technician.

The system I have is the first example shown at 5:36. I'm going to sperg out and break something trying to get the adjustments proper without a repair stand. Also I was using an adjustable wrench, which slipped a lot. Amazon's Choice is $90 and looks like it will last for the life of the bike and me. There are cheaper ones, but I would rather pay more for something that is going to give a noob less frustration. Maybe I should mention that my saddle post is seized in it's lowest position, so I can't grip it from there, just by the frame. And I have no interest in loosening it: the frame is a bit too big for my manlet stature anyways. Raising it would put the tip of my dick in the saddle. I'm kind of drunk.
Grab that repair stand? (and a fixed wrench)
