Anyone with the Shimano R685s finding the rubber hoods are really baggy? I've fitted and bled my front brake once, and my rear brake twice and am finding that the left (rear) rubber hood will no longer stay in place and shifts about as I ride. I've spent longer than I'd like to admit carefully pulling and tugging it into place, only for it to shift around as soon as I get out of the saddle or ride up a hill. Really frustrating. Is this a known thing, or am I just unlucky/stupid?
