about 8 years ago, I bought a phased out X0 trigger, removed the catch lever for the shifting gears inside and had an instant dropper post remote for less than $15.
Also on Shimano GRX the left brake lever is available with this “hack” out of the box.

In reply to 774. 5 years ago almost nobody thought of putting droppers in gravel bikes...

+1 used to take out the left ratchet when I had a drop bar setup years ago.
Do bike companies not go to races and see what riders are using?

I did this like 9 years ago, no kit necessary. Now most everything is dedicated 1x, so no opportunity. I’m sure SRAM will eventually catch on and incorporate dropper levers into their design.

Norco modified their OEM shifter on their search xr Gravel in 2018, PRETTY COOL MOD though

In reply to Bumscag. Yup. But that doesn't work if you bought a bike with a 1x shifter without a paddle to begin with like my bike!

Or, you can just remove the ratchet mechanism it works fine with the stock lever. Been running a Fox Transfer with my Force 11 for years.

In reply to Exodux. I wish it had been released at least 5 years ago.

This is actually pretty cool, although I don’t have my 11 spd Sram 11 spd shifters/ brake levers anymore.
