If you buy a 1x set from Gevenalle, you’ll get the matching lever with it. No need to buy another one.

I shifted from the drops. Maybe it was the combined bar angle and hood angle that happened to make it possible? Not sure, didn't realize it was an issue.
I shifted from the drops with my pointer finger.

First, let me be clear that when I thought my hands were too small to use them it was before I had tried them. There probably are some positions where I have to move my hands a bit to shift — they’re the only shifters with reach-around technology — but having been using them for nearly seven years I don’t even think about it. I’ve got them on three bikes now and really like them.
Not being able to shift from the drops is the one real drawback, but I don’t ride in the drops much so it doesn’t bother me.
