Can daughters fall into the "knob" category aswell as sons?

It may help to categorize some questionable behavior! or not.

Don't suppose anyone has the pics Debs posted on here - not available now & would be handy to see what to expect when pulling the adjuster apart! 🤔

I did mine last year, while I serviced the bike, without dismantling.
I removed the rear shock completely from the bike, and with the adjuster unit held vertically in a vice, drilled a 3mm hole in the top of the adjuster knob where the line joins the H and S letters.  You have to have the hole inside the rim of the adjuster body but not central, so as to clear the spindle.
I poured very thin penetrating oil in to the hole and left it for a day or two. Empty the oil through the hole and repeat a couple of times, turning the knob to free it up. After a few times the adjuster will start to free off and you will be surprised at the amount of crap that comes out when you empty the penetrating oil.
If you do not want to remove the shock absorber, you could unbolt the adjuster and support it next to the bike I suppose.

I just unbolted the adjuster from the bike, put it in a sandwich bag, filled it with penetrating oil and then taped it up. Left it for a day then tried it once or twice. It's been ok ever since.

Thanks for the offer, but I sort my sock drawer out at weekends
