New shock on the way, minus the official tool http://www.silverfish-uk.com/products/39800525_39800525

I'm not really keen to spend £30 on that. I see the 6mm is cheaper https://activesport.co/epages/80c85f8f-7a95-4b1c-9c30-e64b314f3f2e.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/80c85f8f-7a95-4b1c-9c30-e64b314f3f2e/Products/398-00-746

However, I have plenty of 3 and 6mm hex bits and was hoping there was a "driver" or thumbwheel style holder (something similar looking to the fox 6mm tool) I could use with them to perform the same job? There won't be much torque required surely..

Cheers. Thinking I may want something without ratchet for this application though- simply a holder..

I have a Bergen one that was about a tenner that ratchets but also locks, can’t think of a fixed one.

How about a 'universal bit holder' with a knurled end:

And cut the unused end off?

Can't help but that's a spectacular bit of price gouging by Fox.

The 6mm plastic tool you linked to is just to hold the outer adjuster still while you turn the inner 3mm separately.

There's a hole in the center of it to push your 3mm through.

You really don't need anything to hold your 3  and 6 mm bits with as the adjusters are very easy to turn.
