the one problem with that...
there's only one place where you can use it, and that's right at the cable hanger on the steerer tube.
That place can get very cramped as it is on a CX bike, and using a barrel adjuster on it will yield a severely kinked cable.
best solution is to use an inline adjuster, since you can use it on a relatively straight portion of the cable.
