The parts maker Modolo has been around a long time, Adamo Modolo having started the firm in 1952. The company is headquartered in Conegliano, in northeast Italy.

Modolo was originally dedicated to making parts for post-war Italian consumer bikes. In 1976 Adamo's son Domenico and his wife Serena began managing the firm. They took it in an entirely different direction. Instead of chasing the low-margin economic parts trade, Domenico, a capable industrial designer with a degree in mechanical engineering, began designing high-end parts.

The first product of that change, the Modolo Professional brake set, was an immediate hit. Shown at the 1977 Paris and Milan bike shows, the brakeset's superb design and workmanship made these brakes the go-to stopper for anyone not wanting to pay the big bucks for Campagnolo brakes.

In a short time, Modolo began offering that brakeset in different finishes at different prices. But all offered the same high performance.

Modolo introduced these anatomic brake lever hoods as part of their professional brake set in 1977. Since they fit the hand resting on the hood so nicely, they are supremely comfortable. There is a right and left hood.
They not only fit Modolo non-aero levers, they also fit non-aero Campagnolo as well as some Dia-Compe, SunTour and other Campagnolo Nuovo Record lever clones.
