Replacement Brake Hoods??
Team:
Picked up an 86 Peugeot Triathlon this week and the brake hoods were crumbling apart.
Looking for a white replacement set. Original brakes are Modolos. See pics. Would vintage Campy NonAero work? Trying to find something that’ll fit and ship soon.
Any pro tips?

The Modolo hoods come up for sale on Ebay quite often. They are pricey, usually, but unlike other hoods, they tend to stand the passing of time and use really well. There are a few sets (yellow and black and pink) right now. And, as I recall, AME hoods will fit as well.

And yes, Campagnolo Record (non aero) repro hoods should fit nicely. Pretty sure Rustines makes them in white.
