I have a 2020 Kona Rove ST with SRAM Rival 1 shifters/levers/a brifter. It's a 1x11 speed. My local bike shop recently did some work on my bike, and it seems they tore my hood. It was definitely not like this when the bike went in.
I'd like to buy replacement hoods. I'm having a difficult time determining which hoods that I've found online are compatible and will work best with my levers. When I've Googled and looked at various distributor websites I typically would see three or so types of SRAM hoods like in this example result from Jenson
SRAM Doubletap Lever Hoods 10 Speed
Fits SRAM drop bar brakes and 10-speed DoubleTap Shift levers (with the exception of the redesigned 2013 SRAM Red)
These seem like they should be compatible. My brifter lever does say "DoubleTap" on it, but no-one in the reviews/Q&A mentions Rival 1 so I'm hesitant. It's also unfortunate that the hoods do not appear to be textured, and are a bit of a downgrade from my current hoods.
SRAM 22 Brake Hood Covers Textured
Designed to work with 2012 Red, Red 22, Force 22, and Rival 22 Levers
This sounds promising since it mentions Rival
, but it's Rival 22
, which seems distinct from the Rival 1
. Both rival models are listed under the Rival 1 family on SRAM's website so maybe they're compatible?
SRAM AXS eTap Hoods for Cable Brake Levers
Only compatible with AXS eTap Cable Brake Levers
Seems like I can rule this one out since AXS is a distinct/separate family from Rival and these are clearly only for AXS
I am wondering if there are better methodologies for finding replacement hoods and/or if there is a definitive answer to what SRAM hoods currently on sale would be compatible with Rival 1 levers.
