With the original pads, they kinda suck. I sand my pads every few weeks to keep them fresh. I should just invest in decent pads for them. From what I've been told, Campy's theory on brakes was that they are not for stopping, they're for speed control.
Here's how I routed mine (sorry for the crappy phone pic):
When the front cover is on, the lower curve of the cable is inside the body & doesn't cause any problems.
I'm about to change the cables & housing, and will try to set it up better & get a pic of it then.
