Title: Rear shock adjuster.

It's becoming increasingly difficult to adjust and the clicks are almost inaudible (PARDON), any way of freeing it up so it moves a bit easier?

You could take it off of the frame but dont undo any pipes cable tie a plastic bag full of oil to the frame and put the end with black adjuster down into the oil and leave for a while. Itll free it off. Through the bag turn the adjuster fully back n forward working the oil into the workings. Always a good idea to oil it regularly as they are known for seizing up. 👍😬
