Yes, black plastic covers that are harder and more permanent-looking than the typical pushon rubber lever covers of the time. The odd thing is Grant seems to be trying to make Jubilee some kind of icon, yet doesn't seem to know what the real Jubilee shift levers were. Rather strange. Maybe he saw a bike with this combination and assumed the leveres were Jubilee as well. I guess Bridgestone didn't use a lot of Huret, still I would think he had seen complete Jubilee ensembles at trade shows, unless maybe they changed the levers near the end.
