One question: why did you route the front brake cable over your stem? I have mine routed under the bars and under the stem. The cable hanger is then parallel to the stem.
Thanks and that's a good question. The cable routing on my San Jose was like that so I pretty much just copied it. Probably worth investigating whether it could be routed under the bars.

A few people have asked me that. I will be putting together a list of what I ended up buying vs. what I had laying around and how much it all cost.
