Right now we've only got two-cable style in stock, but will be doing a single cable version down the road. You can use this one with a single cable and just cap one hole with a short bolt. Also, the 7/8" grips slip over this metal sleeve and your 1" left-side bar pretty easily if you put a little spray mount, hair spray or other adhesive on there to lube it up.
