  • In this video, I show you how to remove the "guts" from your left shifter if you want to run a 1x11 Sram set up. I also install the guts in another brake lever to show you how to convert a previous 1x system into a 2x11 setup.

    Thanks for this. Was able to take the shifter from a Sram Rival 22 Mechanical and put it in a Sram Rival 1 Hydraulic left/front lever.

    Thanks for the video/tutorial. I got stuck transplanting the internals from a S series 2x into my Force 1 left shifter and this saved me. Thanks again! Subscribed.

    Thanks for the video. I have just converted my 1 x 11 Force to a 2 X system with this "hack". I used a GX front derailleur which worked fine and swapped out the Force 1 rear Derailleur for a GX 2 X 10 speed one. It is Exact Actuation shift pull ratio so works really well with the Force levers.

      Oh that is awesome! I was unsure it would work with the GX front derailleur but that is great to know it works. Sounds like a sweet set up you have. What bike did you put it on?

    FYI, an alternative to the 90deg tool is sticking a spoke in from the front, through the brake cable holder in the top of the lever. I was able to push the pin out that way.

    Very useful video. It helped me Convert my Sram Rival 22 hyd to 1x. I did not have those picks, but I have found that the shaft that holds the mechanism together, has an inside thread. I have screwd a metric screw inside and pulled out the shaft with it. Thanks for the Video!

    Hi, I know this is a bit of an old but I'm looking to have a go at this and have a question. The potential purchase is a rival 1x hrd and secondly a new LH lever blade kit which judging by the kit picture it doesn't have any parts that a shift cable will slide into. My question is, does the standard 1x lever have the drum in it already that a shift cable can slide into? Or will I need that piece?

    How would you remove and install the brake lever on a SRAM Mechanical Hydraulic shifter? By the way, love all of your Ratio Tech videos!

    • @BlackWaterCyclist
      @BlackWaterCyclist  Před 2 lety +1

      Thanks Nick! It's fairly simple to remove the brake lever. It just uses a "C" clip to hold the pin that the lever attaches to. There is a reach adjust bolt under the lever that is a 3mm Allen key size. You screw that in and the lever will start moving away from the bars. You want to basically take that all the way out. Then remove the "c" clip inside and you can use a punch or screw drive to lightly hammer the pin out. There are a few videos on CZcams about it. I may try to make my own next time I service one.

    • @BlackWaterCyclist
      @BlackWaterCyclist  Před 3 lety

      Yes it can. It should work perfectly if you have the left handed internals to put in it. You can also put 11 or 12 speed internals in the right shifter if you ever wanted to upgrade.

      @@BlackWaterCyclist I put the internal in, but i made a mistake. After i slide the center pin that holds the internals, i don't think i tensioned everything properly and now it doesn't shift. I tried taking the center pin out, but there doesn't seem to be an obvious way to take it out. It looks different from the mechanical shifter.

    Not sure if it relates to this video, but maybe someone knows if 10spd Sram Force HRD shifters ever existed or its only S-700 HRD that was 10spd? In my understanding, all Force HRD levers should be 11spd. I've bought a pair of Sram Force HRD shifters, but the seller listed them as 10spd. If that's true, is it possible to upgrade to 11spd w/o replacing the lever?

    • @BlackWaterCyclist
      @BlackWaterCyclist  Před 3 lety +1

      From my understanding, the only 10 speed HRD shifters were the S-700 S series shifters. Your Force that you have ordered should be 11 speed unless the seller put a 10 speed ratchet in there. You can also check out my video here and go ahead and upgrade to 12 speed if it is in fact 10 speed. czcams.com/video/km-ZBY67-Eo/video.html

      @@BlackWaterCyclist thank you for quick reply! Do you know where can I source a ratchet only? By the way, the best way to tell 10 or 11 is to feed the cable, pull it and count clicks, right?
