Full control: DT Swiss builds the Super-Lockout

If you want to be fast on the bike - for example under pressure from the competition on a cross-country course - you need a lockout. For the suspension elements and for the dropper post. This is where DT Swiss steps into the breach and presents new lockout levers that keep the suspension and seatpost in check.

With the L2 remote control, DT Swiss is launching the option of locking the suspension fork and shock with a finger movement on the handlebars. This option is nothing new at DT Swiss; the Incontrol damping can already be operated from above the handlebars using the company's own remote. However, the L2 levers are now located below the handlebars, which is certainly an ergonomic advantage due to the quick accessibility with the thumb.

In total, the suspension can be controlled in three stages by thumb command with the modes open, medium and closed. The handlebar remote can be mounted on the handlebars using the Matchmaker X system or a clamp.

With the L3 remote control, DT Swiss presents the big sibling of the L2 variant. This is because a third thumb lever is used to control the dropper post. The two suspension forks F 232 One and F535 One, as well as the R232 One and R535 One shocks, are compatible with the Biel-based company's own suspension elements. As well as the two dropper posts D 232 One and D 232.

The new levers are economical in terms of weight, with the L2 version weighing around 35 grams and the L3 version around 68 grams.
