Thank you everyone, these pictures are perfect. Isaak, I want to use the Shovel Research cable hanger as well. I was using the Tektro hanger with a Nitto Mini and I just didn't trust that setup. I have to think about whether the Tumbleweed is "too much rack" as compared to my Nitto 32F which I've used with the Tektro hanger. I just didn't like that setup and the rack being involved in the brake system.
