Speaking of the QRs, I must disagree with the OPs link. Again, for what it is worth, taught by an old Italian racer, builder, mechanic, the front QR shall point up and the lever cross over the leg pointing upward to the bars or saddle. The rear QR shall point upward and to the saddle. Just saying, whilst speaking of rules to which nobody will ever agree completely.

Also, the front brake cable goes ahead of the rear brake cable where they cross to opposite sides. But, again, that is what I was shown to be so, others may do as suits them and is golden and true to them.
