Wanted....
View Full Version : Wanted....
Pair of drop handlebar brake levers with decent hoods. Mechanical condition does not matter.
I have just restored the bike that sits on my turbo trainer and want to replace the horrible white
sticky rubber hood covers. I've realised that it's virtually impossible to get the model I need now.
I don't run any cables from the brakes, in fact I have no brakes fitted...I'm not exactly going
anywhere :-)
If anyone has any old levers with decent hoods that they want to get ride of please let me know. A
reply via the group would be preferred because my 'Newsgroup' email address gets so overloaded with
spam I don't tend to want to check it on a regular basis.
Thanks in advance.

I have handlebars with attached brake levers & decent hoods. I can't ride now and boyfriend, who has
adopted my bikes, prefers to use flat bars.
Please send me an email.

I have some old non-aero Weinman ones that have hard plastic hoods. Yours for £2.74 including P&P if
HDVs are no use. Any one else want them ?

No problem. BTW £2.74 was the cost of their replacements, from another URC-er
