I have Tektro RBP cable triangle for my cantilever brakes. Below is what this looks like (image found on google)



I'm installing it onto a new frame so i have to redo the brake cable... The brake cable goes thru the large center bolt. However after it passes the bolt and before touching the bottom edge of the triangle, there is very little room to bend the brake cable such that it clears the bottom of the triangle. Perhaps 3-4mm segment of cable pokes out underneath the bolt.

The "bending" is made more difficult because it also needs to clear a straddle cable and a plastic cable sleeve. I have to bend it quite a bit, and the cable is fairly stiff when dealing with a short segment

Do I simply bend it via brut force or is there a simple way to do this? thanks
