Hello,

Look for the Loctite glue LOCTITE 406. This is a Cyanacrilat-Glue for flexible gum.

Apply a few drop, and press the hood's tore together. Please take care, that You don't get one part with Your Brakelever hood. The gum will melt together. If the tore is fresh, and the part is not contaminated with silicone, This will be a perfect way.

Snip: While removing some cloth tape I slightly tore one of the hoods towards the top. About 3/8" long. Anybody got any tips on how to keep it from ripping any more? Shoe goo?
