[Closed] DT/Synchros rear thru-axle: adjust or new?

So my new Spark has a simple boost non-QR through axle which has come loose a couple of times.  As its bedded in and I’ve tightened it, the apparent fixed position lever is now at an ungainly non aero angle relative to the seat/chain stay.

I can’t see that that there’s an adjustment to change that?

Secondly, if there isn’t, is there an adjustable QR version  that you could recommended purchasing?

Thanks.

Does the lever not pull away from the frame so you can adjust?

The handle part itself is spring loaded and sits on a spline which you can then re-position once tightened?

Some of the others I've seen have a removable handle so once seated you can take it off altogether?

Gah!  It certainly is - pull out, reposition then let it go back.   What a dunce!

Thanks for your help.

I had this on my Scarp with the KTM version of the DT Swiss one, took me best part of a year to figure out that you could undo the allen key and move the handle
