I have had very good luck soaking these hoods in the automotive tire / interior treatment called Son-Of-A-Gun, if this brand is no longer made, find another non-petroleum based spray treatment and soak the inside and outside with this product for at least a day. Do not use Armour-All. I have been able to slide the hoods off without cracking or splitting and was able to transfer them to another bike. BT

I have an unused pair of black Modolo brake levers with the anatomic gum hoods that I won't be using for anything. The hoods seem to be hardening a bit and I really think the odds of removing them intact are very slim. They are still piable and stretchy, but less than the optimal amount. The levers are silk screened "SCOTT" but are most like the Master Pros pictured here: http://tinyurl.com/2ugfn7. The hoods are like these: http://tinyurl.com/27r3bb. Any takers at $20 including air mail? I can get pictures if you'd like, but the levers themselves are nearly perfect (just noticed a tiny scratch on one) and the hoods look and feel great, I just don't think they'll come off without tearing. Happy New Year :^)
