Well, got them set up and working, but now I ask of you, any suggestions on how to get the cable across the top tube a little less damn ugly?

Did the brake boosters come that color or did you have them finished?
Edit: To answer your question, I used some problem solver cable stop to hydraulic adapters that fit a lot more closely than the ones you’re using from what I can tell in the pics. Beyond that, you can get a set of clamp-on cable guides for the top tube, which are also sold by problem solvers, among others.
I respect it…
What year and model is that? Amazing.
You can get stick-on cable guides, which would look cleaner than the zip ties, but then you’ve got these bandaids stuck on your frame, and that’s such a beautiful paint job. I have Maguras on my Spooky. I don’t know if you could kind of run the cable on the bottom of the toptube, and maybe find some yellow zipties?
What’s wrong with the cable stops brazed on the top tube?
