I remove the grub screws when using that hanger. There have been bikes that had deliberately asymmetrical rear brakes (like 1990s Konas and Voodoos, some Ritcheys), where a lockable hanger like this would be helpful. But with "normal" symmetric setups, they are not necessary. Just one would

Weird question, but I'm curious. The Tektro cable yoke has two grub screws to lock in the cable once it's positioned. Many cable hangers like Paul's moon units don't; presumably this allows the cable to self-center (or lose center?). Are the grub screws on the Tektro really necessary or even
