My UO-8 with barcon cables routed between the rack and the cylindrical Bellwether front bag.

Hard to see, but cables routed to just past the start of the upbend bars, as others have reported, as well. Miine works beautifully with 2x6 gearing, non-indexed SunTour ratchet barcons, Shimano Titlist front derailleur, and SunTour Cyclone rear derailleur. When I worked at Bikecology, we set up a customer with a 3x5 (54-50-47/14-18-22-28-34), 1/3-step triple up front, SunTour VGT rear, SunTour Spirt (normal high) front, and then-new SunTour barcons.
