[#1614129]

So I got a nice set of cane creek v-brake drop bar levers for my pompino and fitted them up fine with an old set of tektro calipers I had in the spares box

but I never thought about how to adjust cable tension on them...

Eh, how Do I do that? Can I buy a special doofer to add to the set up to do it? Drop bar v levers dont have any barrel adjusters

An adjustable noodle, something like this? I got a set for my Kaffenback which has Tektro mini-v's - means I can now actually use the quick-release to get the wheels off.

or cut the outer in two and add an inline adjuster
