On my V20 I use a Moose Pack so the rear brake is on the upper mount point. The tip of the pivot arm is unfortunately very close to the frame. While the brake arm does not touch the frame there is no room to use a ferrel on the cable housing so that it will fit into the brake arm.
Since it is a rainy day I thought I would try something different. I took a some Jagwire Elite brake cable parts and random ferrels in my junk box and put together the following.
Using short length of the "slick liner"and six aluminun links, three soft bumpers over the links and one ferrel from Jagwire and two other ferrels, I assembled them on the end of the brake housing.
Final assembly and everything tightened down The Elite housing and the ferrel allow for a nice curve with no interference with the frame of the bike.
Time will tell if this is going to work??
