You may need a noodle with an angle other than 135 degrees (90 or 45) to make a nice loop but the concept is the same.

Still confused.

The front brake lever is on rider's left. If the noodle mounts to the top of the cable hanger (assuming in this instance an aftermarket lowered cable hanger) and the cable exits the noodle toward's rider's left.... how does it make a curve up to the right to the interrupter lever (scratching head). In this scenario it seems to me the cable would have to make an 'S' curve.

In the pic below:
-blue represents the front brake interrupter lever
-green represents the idealized lower cable hanger
-red represents the 135 degree noodle.





How does the cable route?
