and I couldn't use the end cable guide either, the bend was too sharp, so it was cable-tied it a bit further up the chainstay.

Stupid idea: Combine your chainstay end guide with the reverse of this picture (The brake arm can be refitted 60degrees forward/backwards of the normal position) So refit the brake arm into an forward position-

There could be problems with enough room... :) + cable has to pull downwards.

That setup was done, just because we could - and to see how well it
worked (which was fine). The Avid mech arm can be re-installed every
60 deg, because it sits on an hex key. The return spring was
re-positioned to provide a similar return force. The frame was
designed to handle the earlier version of BB7 caliper, which had a
longer arm, but I did not have one handy to modify by the time this
project happened. The pictured setup is on a MTB tandem, and there is
no shortage of braking power.
