Hi all-
I've always used a little luke warm soapy water to pull on hoods as well as squeeze in new brake blocks with no problem...
Except the one time I put the block in backwards on the front brakes of my fixie and watched with horror as one block shoot out like a rubber bullet as I squeezed that front lever at speed while motor-pacing down Main St of our small town:)
Herb, care to sell me a few pairs of those hoods???
