Hi,

I'm just restoring an old road bike for training and it has the 105SC brakeset from circa 1989 on it.

Does anyone know if replacement brake hoods are available for these brakes as the only one I can find online are for STI levers.

The ones I have are the original aero levers - non STI.

Thanks for your help.

I got some brand new Tiagra aero levers from DH Cyclesport in Southampton for £11.86 (try their ebay shop) In my expereince NOS hoods cost more than the levers!

I bought some from Parker International, I think - I changed from white ones to black ones.
