   Im looking to buy some new shocks for the rear but im looking at them and im not sure weather to go for adjustable ones or non adjustable, obviously the advantage of having the adjustable ones is that you can adjust them but is it much better to have them ones just that i am on a tight budget. Do you really need the adjustable ones??

   if you get decent shocks with matched springs then most would not adjust them.
   
   Pair up the correct combo and you won't normally have too.

   Yer becuase what im looking to do is just have springs on the front because im only going 40mm, but i want new shocks on the back because i think im going to go 50 or 60mm
