I have the Euro/Canadian bike with Sachs forks. The large tube that houses the mid valve just unscrews from the 4 pronged spring seat thinger. Lightly clamp the 4 pronged thinger in the vise and use a screw driver through the holes in the end of the tube to turn it. I'm sure there is a fancy tool to accomplish the same task.

Odd, isn't it? Someone in this thread said they had to make a 10 point tool another had a 4 point jobbie- the cart we had was a 6 point with a 33mm OD on the cart.

I've taken forks apart using the holes before- scares the crap out of me. Way too easy to make it out of round.

We made the 33mm aluminum vice jaws to clamp the cart and the proper (for what we had to work on) 6 point tool.

(Editing because the photo is monstrous in size)

Ok, just check out the page on the site... http://www.stmsuspension.com/photos/

Thanks will check out the pics

As for the ten pointer for the fork caps, why not just use the 19mm that houses the rebound clicker? (remember to loosen the top trippleclamp before trying to loosen the fork caps!)
