Mountain Bike Suspension Pump
How to pump up a rear shock of a full suspension mountain bike?
So i got a full spension mountain bike and i need to add air to the rear shock. But the stem on the rear shock is too short. When i use my air compressor to add air, the nozzle of the air compressor wont fully connect to the stem on the shock because the body of the shock is in the way. its hard to explain, but long story short, i think i need a stem extension or something like that. do they make those? anyone got a better idea?
thanks

Buzzy’s makes a good high pressure shock pump…
