How To Replace Bracket Covers On Shimano STI Hydraulic and Di2 Levers

If you want to learn how to replace bracket covers on Shimano hydraulic and Di2 STI levers then you're in the right place.
Are your Shimano hydraulic or Di2 drop bar lever hoods showing signs of wear? It might be time for a replacement. Unlike non-Di2 and hydraulic STI levers, the complexity of Di2 and hydraulic levers makes it challenging to replace the hoods without removing them from the handlebars. Attempting to force them on could damage the lever or tear the new hood. In today's video, I'll guide you through the correct method of replacing the hoods on these levers. While it may seem more involved initially, following my tutorial will ensure a smooth and hassle-free process.
