Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus comprising a body, an actuator assembly and an actuator control assembly. The body is attached to a handlebar of a handlebar-steered vehicle. The actuator assembly includes a lever arm in pivoting engagement with the body about a pivot axis spaced apart from an axis of a handlebar to which the body is attached. The lever arm is associated with a suspension adjust cable. The actuator control assembly includes a locking assembly and an adjustment assembly. The locking assembly is associated with each of the body and the actuator assembly. The locking assembly is capable of preventing pivoting of the actuator relative to the body in a first position corresponding to a first suspension setting. The adjustment assembly is associated with each of the body and the actuator assembly. The adjustment assembly is capable of preventing pivoting of the actuator relative to the body in a second position corresponding to a second suspension setting. Advantageously, the second suspension setting is adjustable through the adjustment assembly independently of the first suspension setting.
