Hoods for these Mafacs?
Folks-
I'm contemplating throwing these mafacs on my ride, they're super light, plastic bases, no hoods.
Would these take the new Cane Creek hoods or do I need something more specific?
thanks,
mark

They're not designed for hoods. No, the Cane Creek hoods will not fit well. I suppose you could use the old MAFAC "half hoods", but I don't believe they were intended for those specific levers and they're difficult to find in good condition. Just wear padded gloves.
