Looking For Mafac or Rustines/Mafac Half Hoods-

I have read somewhere that Rustines have devoted their production capacity to making PPEs for first responders in France, so their half hoods for Mafac brake levers have crossed over into “unobtainium” status.

Does anyone have a source for them (yes, I’ve been on eBay)? I’m on the hunt for a pair in gum preferably but I’ll take black, too.

Thanks for looking!

Oh that's a new wrinkle in the hunt for Rustines hoods.

We had a c&v thread on Rustines recently (below). The French website still shows very little in the way of any hoods in stock.

Where to find Rustines hoods?
