Gravel and road riders with Shimano GRX ST-RX820 levers whose hoods are worn, torn or loose.
These are genuine Shimano bracket covers (lever hoods) for the GRX ST-RX820 mechanical levers, sold as a pair in black.
Hoods are where your hands spend most of the ride, and on gravel bikes they cop sweat, sunscreen, mud and the odd crash. When they're torn, stretched or slippery, new covers restore grip and a secure feel over rough ground.
They are shaped for the ST-RX820 body, so they fit properly around the lever and bracket. Fitting is simple with the bar tape still in place.

Maybe not for
Only fits Shimano GRX ST-RX820 levers. Check the model number printed on the inside of your lever body if unsure.
Warm them up
Hoods go on much more easily if you warm them in hot water first. A little isopropyl alcohol inside lets them slide into place, then it evaporates away.
Start from the front
Roll the hood back on itself, hook it over the front of the lever body first, then work it back over the clamp.
