John,
You would think, but they are quite stiff and the hole relatively small - I wonder if a little heat would help, or talc as with later hoods?
I did also remove the lever from the lever body and this may help. I honestly haven't given it much effort yet as I am still a bit away from applying the brakes (so to speak!)
They are quite nicely fashioned - they are copies of the original shockstops that Pete Paine had produced (as far as I have been told) but are stamped clubhoods.
Cheers,
Paul.
