    Question about front brake handle and cable connection.

    Ok so is there another piece besides the adjusting bolt (not the lock screw) that holds the brake cable into the recessed hole in the adjusting screw? Or do you just push it in there and use straps/zip-ties to hold it in there?

    Thanks,

    Justin

    The cable tension at the brake end being set properly keeps it from coming out.

    If there is too much slack then it'll pop out..see the proper brake adjustment procedure in the online manual for reference.
