4fun Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 So I bought the one up dropper post and got it today. Was planning on installing with my ks southpaw lever! Slight impulse buy and didn’t read that the cable installs the opposite way of KS. Any one know a easy way of making this fit? I’ll probably end up buying the one up lever but wanted to try it out before the rain starts tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATXZJ Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 you can reverse the cable and use the cable jamnut for the KS on the lever side. itll be cobbled but itll work for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mack_turtle Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Get a KS cable collar or an Odyssey Knarp. Empire has Knarps for $5 a pair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knarps are sized to fit in brake levers but most droppers use shift cables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used a knarp on my BX dropper to make a KS Southpaw work. The hole in the Knarp is indeed a bit wide for a shift cable but it worked just fine. The KS cable collar probably works better.
