Thanks for putting together this guide, capetown. I have a mid-80s Trek 600 series with non-aero brake levers that fit into 'group 1'. The original hoods are disintegrating so I'm looking for replacements. I'm more concerned about reasonable cost than about maintaining the matching original components. I've found NOS Shimano hoods for ~$30, but this seems excessive for a cheapskate like me. What other options are available for hoods that fit this group? I am looking at Cane Creek hoods (e.g.
