Replacement Brake Hoods (Bracket Covers)

[Shadow]

Where do folk go in search of replacement rubber hoods?

I have an old pair which have lasted well without cracking/splitting but now have a nasty sticky surface due to rubber degradation. They are so old Shimano no longer make them and of course, Shimano slightly change the design of them with every new 'improved' product, thereby trying to fit similar ones do not fit. I need ST-3400. (And would also like ST-5601 for another bike as they are likely to degrade soon!).

R3000 here if that's the right part?

Have you had a search on ebay?

Hudz probably make some - you might even be able to colour match them to your bike.

Not compatible, apparently.

I bought these from SJS for my bike with ST-3400 shifters - they're a perfect fit despite the web page saying they're not compatible.

That's good to hear - probably means they'll work for the 3500 series as well.
