Drop to Flat Bar Conversion - Getting Started

I want to convert from drop bar to flat bar on my Salsa Fargo. It’s Sram Apex 1x. TRP Spyre C brakes. Shimano BL4700 levers. I have the correct parts as the bike has been in both configurations. LBS did it previously.

- I don’t know how to install the mtb brake cable into the cable hook. I can fit it in there but how to keep it in there, securely

I’ll post later about the Apex flat bar shifter (one thing at a time
