  If you are stuck, it is not difficult to make a pair that will work very ef fectively.  Start with heavy gauge aluminum (just thin enough to go th rough the slot) and cut it and shape it so it fits through the slot and loc ks into place.  There is no need for a groove to keep the cable in lin e - it's not going to go anywhere.  In about 1990 I bought a new Bianc hi that didn't have these parts fitted and, having been told that the lever s should have them, I made a pair without ever having seen what the real pa rts looked like.  They worked really well for many years and I still h ave them somewhere.

i need a pair.  the were missing in a set of c-record levers i purchas ed.

they are the little aluminum bits with a groove.  they change the leve rag e point so you can run aero cables and still have good brake power.

they look like this: http://brown-snout.com/cycling/misc/campy_brake_hardware1.JPG http://brown-snout.com/cycling/misc/campy_brake_hardware2.JPG
