Brake Levers - White Hoods
Does anyone know of any place to find some brake levers with white hoods? (If I don't see any KKK pictures by the third post, I'll be disappointed with all of you.)
I've been searching around for months but could never find anything other than used yellowed-out stuff on eBay. I'm just looking for some regular levers, nothing too terribly pricey and preferably new. Any ideas? |

there are a lot of old school campy levers with white hoods. check ebay.

Diacompe makes a great vintage aero lever which comes in white. It's about $70 on eBay.

I found this awesome place that had tons of white hooded aero levers. It's called 1987.

I have a set of Campagnolo aero levers that have white hoods in decent shape. Some Bleche-White may make them sparkle.

White brake hoods get dirty so amazingly fast. I just (re)built up a road bike with white hoods and after about 50 miles of riding the hoods are already grimy. I wear cycling-only gloves too. Soon as the bar tape wears out I'm switching to dark blue or black hoods.

My road bike just happens to be a 1987 Peugeot Triathlon. |

Watch ebay. 2 months ago I got some NOS Shimano 105's with white hoods. $45. Awesome. Just gotta clean them now and then.
|
everyone should email Hudz and ask them to make Hudz that are compatible with Tektro R200As. I did once and they said they would if there was enough interest in the product.
|
i just need hoods though. I can get white 105s for 40 i believe. unless they have been sold.
