I am trying to find hoods in Movistar green (lime) for Chorus 11spd. Some of Movistar's riders have them on their bikes but I don't know which brand these are - possibly they are supplied by Campagnolo.

So far I found XON and ODI Hüdz.

The XON's don't seem to be widely available.

The ODI's in Milano Line, when searching online, show up from darkish green to screaming Lime so I am not sure what the actual color of these is.

Any suggestions ?

Searched a bit more.

Peter Sagan's bike with hudz milano lime in 2012.
Second picture is milano lime from bike24 webshop.

The Campagnolo spare parts catalogue of 2014 lists the hoods part# EC-SR500, 2015 is EC-SR600. Now I know they changed the hoods for Super Record, Record, and Chorus mechanical. Does anyone know if it is only the material that changed or are they actually incompatible ? Most sites online say its only the material but..

They're Campagnolo specials just for Movistar and only for EPS. They aren't listed on Campagnolo's B2B site either.

Thank you - I kind of suspected it might be the case.
I'll give the ODI's a try, if they are compatible with the new hoods.

In case anyone wonders, this is the actual green of the Odi Hudz in Milano Lime color.

Beautiful bike. I'd put black hoods though. Draw too much attention.

I like the color and they look sharp on your machine, but unfortunately I can't stand Hudz. I tried them for several months, but finally went back to oem version. Feel so much better. How are you liking them? To me, they were soft, squishy, and became very slick with sweat. Disclaimer being I ride bare handed. Gloves only come out for crits.

Only one 2hr ride on them the evening i posted the pics.
Impression after just one ride is they are less chunky compared the original, less of a bump at the transitions from hoods to bars and the area under the hoods where your fingers are while riding on the hoods feels better to me. Installation was quick and easy with a tiny bit of lubrication. They don't have the small "hooks" (those small round things you click in the small holes on the shifters). I always ride with gloves and not in the wet yet, so I can't really say if they are slippery then. I do find them comfortable though, but again it's after one ride only.
@samuel: I do like a bit of color on my bike, though less so on wheels, makes the bike stand out better.

That's a great looking machine. :thumbup:

I would go with the green Hudz but without the Movistar sticker.

I like it with the green Hudz. Can go either way about the Movistar sticker but I like it on there.
