hoods

Back in the day AME used to make brake hoods in a variety of colors. It was a great way to accent your bike and make it your own. Well, there are now two other offerings that allow you to do the same thing. Hüdz and Far & Near. I already mentioned Hüdz in a previous posting, so now I am going to talk about the Far & Near hoods.

Well I have had the new Hüdz replacement brake hoods on my Dura-Ace equipped bike for several rides now and here is what I think. I like them. Now that doesn’t mean they are perfect, there are issues.

If you are looking to add just a little bit of bling to your bike and don’t know what it is missing, maybe this is for you.
