Give the adjustable ones a wide birth imo your better off p1$$ing in the wind ;( there one size fits fook all (gah)

Find out the size you need and get a specific size one is my advice.

I used a pair of waterpump pliers on my shock - works a treat!!

Fwiw almost every bike I have ever worked on looked like the previous owner used a hammer & drift.

I had to use a hammer and blunt chisel the first time on mine - it had done 15k miles of commute and the salt had gotten well into it. A C Spanner wouldn't do it
