I didn't realize, but there are fewer choices out there for 2:1 grip shifters. If you get an "X" series grip shifter, you'll need a Sram rear derailleur to match.
It is an eight speed with a triple.

He is agreeable with a friction/micro shifter.

Can I use any Sram 8 speed for the rear and micro for the front?
