So I am trying to decide which is the better shock to get? I weigh about 150 pounds. Assuming the prices are the same for a newgen 250 shock and a ex500 shock which would be the better buy? So far I'm thinking that the ex500 shock will be a bit stiffer than the newgen, but then again, the newgen is easily adjustable using the spanner, while the ex500 shock is only adjustable using the two threaded lock collars. Any suggestions? Thanks!
