Brake hoods

[LarryDuff]

Anyone know where I could get a set of brake hoods in a nice bright colour for shimano 105 brakes?

Unfortunately not or so I was told. My brakes are 105 6800 and these are different shape and don't fit. Which is a pity because they look sweet.

You mean 5800?

Sorry yes I mean mine are 5800 and the 5700 ones don't fit.

In our experience most of these non-Shimano hoods really just do not fit properly

Cheers!

The blue ones would go well on my bike (pity no lime green option though!)

On second thoughts 45 quid is a bit too much.

How does $25 = £45? To be fair I've not looked at postage costs

Ah $25 per hood bah
