Jeff, by turning the other end of a 1/4 inch drive extension around and
using the end that normally attaches to the ratchet, you can use then fit
this end over the adjuster (not unlike a socket, provided it's not buggered
up).  Then you can grab the end of the extension which is easier (and
presumably harder material) than trying to grab the relatively soft
adjuster with a 1/4 inch wrench.  Actually, "Big Three" carry spoke
wrenches, which coincidentally are also 1/4 inch wrenches, and make a great
adjuster tool -
