Try brake fluid on the hoods, it works on crumbly tyres by replacing the plasticisers. Plasticisers are added to brake fluid to keep rubber brake hoses supple, but as the hoods are probably just latex, it may not work. Makes you glad you kept that half a jar of old brake fluid for ten years.

In other news, wheels are built, will pop them round to the LBS just to check and fix one I simply cannot get to true
