You know you got it bad when you suddenly *have* to colour co-ordinate your cable grommets, although you're not sure if the pink ones will clash with the more fuschia colour-scheme of your bike so you might have to go with the white instead.

I woudn't mind but I was actually looking for some snazzy white brake hoods for a totally different bike.
 

Jo Burt has spent the majority of his life riding bikes, drawing bikes and writing about bikes. When he's not scribbling pictures for the whole gamut of cycling media he writes words about them for road.cc and when he's not doing either of those he's pedaling. Then in whatever spare minutes there are in between he's agonizing over getting his socks, cycling cap and bar-tape to coordinate just so. And is quietly disappointed that yours don't He rides and races road bikes a bit, cyclo-cross bikes a lot and mountainbikes a fair bit too. Would rather be up a mountain.

Hudz say that the DA7900 hoods wont fit the Ultegra 6700 ones, but that they are bringing out a 6700 version soon. I've been waiting for some for mine, but no joy yet...
