Super Hood levers. Left introduced 1953 with cable adjuster in the hood rather than as previously, seperate which sat in the cable exit on top of hood. Some of these were anodised Right: The later, called the Rapide (1959), has a horrible plastic Q/R which always snaps.

Two types of Arret levers The later, which appeared in 1959 has a blue GB logo, this one also has the anodised lever which is rare. There are also some anodised stirrups
