Old School Campy Brake Lever Question
I read here that the record, nr, sr, victory & triomphe brake levers were all the same bodies thus the same hoods; can anyone confirm this?

Yes. The differences were cosmetic.

the lever portion of the Record model lever changed about 1976
reach was reduced

Just make sure you’re not interchanging with the C- Record style aero lever. Those use a different hood

lecycleur.com has a photo essay review which I was recently made aware of.
By 1976 I think they were in version 3 or 4.
I had a brake set most likely made in 1972 or 73, by late 1975, the replacement part I ordered was not matching, so ordered a second.

Gotcha. I was just hoping to get a comprehensive, all inclusive list of I guess Campy lever bodies to then be able to expand my search list for replacement hoods.

Ok, it looks like these 'NR/SR' hoods do fit ok on these Victory levers
