russmeyer-
It's another bodge actually, I Dremeled out a cable stop to run a full length brake housing to the rear when this bike was a single speed, but obviously that meant there was nothing to hold the cable in place. So the zip tie round the top tube, through a washer is a replacement. Sort of more complicated than it needs to be!

First shim (years old, has been fine for ages) started to let the seatpost slip, so...yo dawg etc
Fingers crossed this one stays, plenty of assembly paste in there as well. Finished off tidier, photo is just to see what's in there.
