Brown brake lever hoods for classic road racing bikes — a plastic part intended for the lever bodies of period road builds. The material is plastic; the country of origin is Asia; the manufacturer part number is 0000.
These are brake lever hoods, not complete brake levers. They are the brown plastic covers that sit over the lever body — the part that usually perishes first on a bike that has spent years in a garage. If your levers are mechanically sound but the covers have hardened, cracked or gone missing, this is the replacement element you are looking for.
Hoods are not universal. Sizing depends on the lever body they are stretched over, the diameter of the perch and the spacing of the body, and the brand-to-brand variation on period road levers is real. Because this listing does not carry a declared diameter or a compatibility list, the reliable check is visual: compare the shape of the hood in the photos against the lever body on your bike. Priority should go to the lever make and generation, not to a generic size label.
. Cosmetic wear and handling marks consistent with long storage can be expected on a part of this age. The photos form part of the description and are the primary record of the actual item; any major issue — a crack, a deformation or similar — is stated in the description. Nothing beyond what is written there and shown in the images should be assumed.

More cable and lever-side hardware for period builds sits in our cables, clamps, housing and guides range. If you are running a Simplex-equipped machine, the Simplex vintage gear cable guide and the NOS Simplex gear cable guide clamp use the same period-correct logic: match the original fitting first.
Just the hoods. These are the brown plastic covers that fit over the brake lever body on a classic road racing bike. No lever mechanism is included.
Sizing depends on the lever body itself, and no diameter or compatibility list is declared for these hoods. Compare the shape in the photos against the lever body on your bike before fitting.
The material is plastic, the country of origin is Asia, and the manufacturer part number is 0000, exactly as listed in the technical details above.
