Wow 69 views and not one reply that might be some kind of record.It made me get off my lazy backside go out and measure it myself.My lovely vernier gauge measures 49.9mm.That will be a 50mm C spanner required

Yeah, I think that was the general feeling "go and measure it ya lazy bu**er" 😁
Actually I find with C spanners, close enough is good enough and shocks can usually be adjusted with some suitably padded grips.
