Replacement hoods for vintage Trek - where?
Hey there,
Anyone know where I can find some original-style hoods for a 1983 Trek 620? The levers are original Diacompe, and the hoods themselves are sort of a yellowish-brown color.
Thanks,
-Bob

Try searching eBay: " brake hoods". Plenty of Dia Compes but the Campy ones are steep! Good luck.

gum hoods are still made by diacompe in aero and nonaero, and shouldn't cost you more than $10-$12.

yes I've seen a lot of them on ebay. A seller called bikesplus has them in various funky colors for $8.
