600AX brake hoods? (any hoods that work ok?)
So I bought one of those "aero" bikes, that comes with aero shaped frame and Shimano 600AX. But of course the hoods has gotten eaten up by the process of nature. 
Has any body tried any other existing hoods, is there any that make an ok fit? Maybe cane creek hoods?
Im not buying NOS 600AX ones for crazy amounts...
This is the bike btw(Mustang 600 Aero):

I haven't had luck finding any either at leasst not at a reasonable to me price.
Check your seatpost too because it looks like there's very little of it left inside the frame.
Cheers
