Maybe.
Most are dual pull now.
Bike and mech part number.
Most likely to be more cost effective to get new but give the above info and we can have a think."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

It's a gt sensor 3 2011.
The mech is a SRAM x9. That's all I know.
Yeah I'm thinking buy the right one and sell the other as its brand new.0 -
There are many different X9's...... if you can find a similar one with a top pull arm you can swap the arm over, or just buy one and sell your's, buying just the arm new will cost more than buying a used complete mech.
Picture? It may be duel pull.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0 -
