I've a DB Air IL on my stumpy, and given the asymetric frame, teh dials etc on teh shock are rotated at about 45 degrees...
Thus, the climb switch kinda sticks out a bit and I keep catching it on my shorts/knee, adn locking it out/1!!!

Here it is on a normal bike..you can see how exposed it is tehre..

Ideally i'd like to find a replacement dial...but it's a unique bit so my options are:
-simply cut the long lever off and file the remnant smooth..this is what TFTuned guys suggested
-get a dial 3d printed
-get a dial CNC machined...

I'd LOVE a round, turn dial, like this (kinda)..

Something round with some nobbles on it..
Trouble is, the 'key' part on the back of the lever is unique..

Anyone done similar, of got any bright ideas??

Cut the lever off and bond a beer cap on?
