Third hand (loose screws) has NOS 7401 dura ace brake lever hoods for a modest $19.00. It says fits only certain models but does not mention 7402 levers among them. I have heard that the 7401 lever is essentially a 7402 without a return spring in the lever body. Has anyone used the 7401 hoods on 7402 levers with some success? They specifically do not want to be called with any technical questions.
