I have some revs with the poplock, i don't use the poplock as I don't like it, is there any way of being able to adjust the dial on the fork so that i can set the compression? at the moment in its poplock mode you can turn the blue dial but it just reverts back to fully open once you let go..i am aware of the poplock adjust but dont want that. I would like an adjustable dial on the fork leg....is this available as I've not seen any..?

cheers

Yes. You can bodge it, half bodge it or do it proper by changing out the whole damper, which is unnecessary. Search the forum for "Peterpoddy's Poplock conversion". You should find it. Basically you just pop out the damper cartridge and unhook the spring that controls the poplock, then you can either use it as it is, or change to a proper adjuster with the little knob.

Or you can adjust the Poploc cable full so it doesn't fully lock, I have mine so it feels the same as my rear suspension with pro pedal on.
I appreciate this means using a Poploc lever which you don't want to do!
