Not a new idea, but I just got a pair of these from ebay for £4 delivered:

Are micro adjust/ratcheted, so can use it to precisely set compression damping, or full lock. Works absolutely perfectly, and with two for the money can mount left or right handed.

have you tried it out ?
i like the idea, but not sure about another lever on the bars0 -
cool! Especially with the original RS pop lock being such ordeal!0

My dropper seatpost remote is slowly on the way out - considered using one of these as a cheaper substitute. Could that work?Lapierre Spicy 316 2012

Very likely.
I have fully tested it for the the fork - it works great. is a good option for those who want a full range of compression adjust with a bar mount, or those who have bought poploc forks without the poploc and don't fancy taken the damper apart. For the money worth a go ;-)0 -
Is it possible to get higher quality, better looking levers that would also work?
I don't like the idea of the metal setup for fixing them to the bars...0 -
Yes, just have a look on ebay for thumb shifters.0
