i would like to know how any 856 owners on the forum hame routed the rear brake cable when running v-brakes.
have you routed through the hole in the seat tube, as was designed for canti's, or run it along side the seat tube?

Run it along the left hand side of the seat tube. You may have to use a zip tie to hold it close to the down tube to stop your feet hitting it when you pedal.

Good luck,
