So? How does the brake cable that inserts directly behind the seat post get past (through?) the seat post?

Very helpful, thank you.

If this is the kind of helpful information to be found in your book, I’ll have to pass.

Now Brent, be nice! He came here to share info, he did, and I'm grateful for it.

Ago15 , you are welcome here. Thanks for your beautiful photos. I learned of a new (to me) artisan builder because of your posts.
If you want to withhold one little piece of info to reveal in your book, well, I for one can live with that just fine. Good luck with the book!

Withholding one little bit of information… or even many bits…won’t result in fewer book sales. But it is uncool, especially when you’re holding yourself out to be an expert in a subject.
