Description

Replacement hood covers for the Shimano ST-5700 105 shifters are the kind of small upgrade that makes a noticeable difference on long days in the saddle. Whether you are grinding up the Ghats near Pune, logging base miles through Chennai heat, or just refreshing worn-out hoods after a wet monsoon season, a fresh pair restores grip and comfort exactly where your hands spend most of their Time.

Use Cases

Daily training. Reliable use across Indian training conditions — heat, humidity, and rough tarmac.

Race day. Performance-grade construction for competitive efforts.

Long rides. Built for full-day rides across Western Ghats, Sahyadri, or Nilgiri climbs.

Our Take

The ST-5700 hood covers sit on one of Shimano's most enduring groupsets — 105 in its 10-speed form remains a staple on thousands of Indian bikes. After a couple of monsoon seasons, hoods harden, crack, or lose their tackiness. Swapping them out is one of the cheapest comfort wins available. The rubber compound holds up well in 35°C+ heat and stays grippy even through a soaking Western Ghats descent. At Rs. 530, this is straightforward, honest value.

Sizing for Indian Riders

These covers are model-specific: they fit the ST-5700 shifter body only and are not adjustable. There is no size selection to make — confirm your shifter model number (printed on the shifter body) is ST-5700 before ordering. If you have upgraded to 105 R7000 or another generation, these will not fit. Contact Cobbled Climbs via WhatsApp if you are unsure of your shifter generation.

Compatibility Notes

Designed exclusively for Shimano ST-5700 brake-shift levers. Not compatible with ST-R7000, ST-5800, Tiagra, Sora, or any other generation. Works with standard drop-bar tape setups. Clean the shifter body with a damp cloth before fitting new covers to ensure a snug, even seat. All Shimano products at Cobbled Climbs are 100% genuine and authorised.

Pairs Well With

Consider pairing with fresh bar tape for a complete cockpit refresh. Brake cable and housing sets are a natural companion service item. Shimano-compatible brake pads and a quality chain lubricant suited to Indian dust and monsoon conditions round out a practical maintenance bundle.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the Shimano ST-5700 Hood Covers best used for?

These covers are a direct replacement for worn, cracked, or hardened hoods on Shimano ST-5700 105 shifters. They are ideal for riders looking to restore cockpit comfort and grip after extended use — particularly relevant in India where monsoon moisture and prolonged heat accelerate rubber degradation. A fresh pair also helps with control on long descents through areas like Lonavala or Coorg.

Do I need to select a size for the ST-5700 Hood Covers?

No size selection is needed. These covers are model-specific and fit only the ST-5700 shifter body. Simply confirm your brake-shift levers are marked ST-5700 before ordering. If you are unsure of your shifter generation — especially if your bike has been upgraded or built up from parts — contact Cobbled Climbs via WhatsApp for a quick confirmation before purchasing.

Will these hood covers hold up in Indian monsoon conditions and 35°C+ heat?

Yes. Shimano's rubber compound is designed for varied global conditions, and the ST-5700 hoods perform reliably through India's monsoon season and summer heat. Prolonged UV exposure and heat can eventually harden any rubber hood, which is exactly why having a genuine replacement pair on hand is sensible. Wiping them down after wet rides extends their life considerably.

How do the ST-5700 Hood Covers compare to aftermarket hood covers?

Genuine Shimano ST-5700 hoods offer an exact fit and consistent rubber quality compared to generic aftermarket options, which often use harder compounds and looser tolerances that can bunch or slip. At Rs. 530, the genuine part is affordable enough that compromising on fit makes little sense. Aftermarket hoods may also void any remaining warranty on your shifters.

Is Rs. 530 good value, and what warranty applies?

At Rs. 530 for a genuine Shimano replacement part shipped from Mumbai, this is straightforward value — especially compared to the cost of a full shifter replacement. Shimano warranty terms apply per their published policy. Cobbled Climbs is an authorised Shimano retailer, so all products are 100% genuine. Free delivery applies on orders above Rs. 2,500, and cash on delivery is available across India.
