Simple question about cable detangler...

I'm looking at a bike, it doesn't say it has a cable detangler.... Can I easily put one on?

All the gyros are the same basic design. My guess is that driving force is just a product name. The only gyro currently on the market that is different from the others in any meaninful way is Odyssey's G3, which is sealed and has built in knarps.

Driving force is a gyro that appears to be used by DK.
