Folks,
i bought a new frame and it hasn't any cable stops for the XT V brake that i intend fitting.Anything i can do about it?Or do i need to go disc brake at the back as it has the mount?
Thanks for any feedback.Regards

no cable stops at all just guides? run a full length outer.

Yes,just guides and no stops.Will running a full length outer affect brakng efficiency?0

normally improves it as it keeps all the crud out for longer.

You can also get some of these to keep your cables slippery smooth!
Probably a good idea if your running full length outers.

Any reason they shouldn't be used? I'll remember that though!

some of the treated cables should not be lubed as it increases friction. read the instructions that come with the cables. they are there for a reason. not everything is the same.
