Shimano 105 brake lever hoods (or rubber covers if you prefer), hailing from Japan and in production during the 1980s (yet still new & unused after all this time!). The perfect finishing touch for your vintage bike, but great for bikes of the non-vintage variety too!
If you're taking part in L'Eroica or any other vintage event, these are fully compliant - so rest assured, the pre-1987 police won't lock you up for having the wrong lever covers!

TECHNICAL INFO
Colour* - Black
Cable Routing - Non-Aero
*The colour description is just a guide, please check the photos too as we make sure these are as close to the true colour as possible.
NB: Hoods must be carefully installed from the rear of the lever
not the front. This avoids any unwanted damage as torn hoods cannot be returned! Applying a lubricant such as vaseline or talcum powder to the lever helps when fitting.

▼HELP SECTION
-
Cable Routing - non-aero means the cables come out at the top of the brake levers, meaning the cables are on show. With aero levers the cable comes out of a small hole by the handlebar, allowing the cables to be hidden under the handlebar tape.
