Hoods Comfort

Customers highly praise the comfort of the hoods on these Shimano BL-R400 Road Drop Brake Levers, with many noting their preference for the compact size and aero design that allows for greater hand comfort during long rides. Some customers have suggested that larger hoods would be even more desirable, while others appreciate the classic fit and finish of these levers.

Quality


Great fitment and quality cant go wrong


These are great, comfortable riding in hoods, compact aero design, good braking response and easy install.


Great product that's been made for years; nice to have a decent, new option rather than scouring the ebay for someone's spendy used garbage


What i'd like a lot is if someone made brake-only levers with great big "brifter" hoods like modern bikes have.

    My single speed bike came with some ugly horizontal brakes on my drop bars so i had to upgrade to these for sure

    You will need some additional tools of your own like a wire cutter

    It would be perfect if it came in all black though


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They feel very solid and have very little play in them thanks to the return springs


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The levers are hard to reach from my drops with the hoods at the right angle for me


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    With a compact drop they might work better


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I might try to bend the levers to a better position for me
