I believe that you can install them wherever you have cable housing. you choose the correct size threaded insert for your cable/housing combo and then cut the housing and install them inline. They work the same as the barrell adjusters on your derailers work. By screwing the inserts in or out, you effectively lengthen or shorten the cable housing. Since the cable length is constant, lengthening or shortening the housing will tighten or loosen the caliper.
