"I recommend you not scrimp on the dropper post remote"
Very agree. And that OneUp in the photo might have the best position possible. For those that don't know, it's designed to be closer to the upshift lever (the little one) position of a rear shifter instead of the downshift lever (the big one). I swapped back to a PNW Loam lever after my first OneUp disappeared when my bike was stolen, and though the Loam is a great lever, it's MatchMaker mount just doesn't have the range to get it comfortable after a while on the OneUp.
Besides the great position, I really like the kinda push-button feel of the OneUp vs the lever-sweep feel of every other lever, so of course eventually grabbed up another one, and it'll be my choice until I find a better dropper (OneUp V2 180 maximizes drop in my Stumpy size L @ 5'10"/178cm) that needs more pull.
Speaking of, one thing is that the OneUp might not work quite as well with a dropper that needs more cable pull as that push-button-like action gets more like a lever-sweep. In that case PNW Loam or WolfTooth levers are great, just don't be afraid to ditch the MatchMaker or iSpec stuff and go band-clamp in order to get the rotational position just right.
