Hi, this request is in other BR fora but I'll ask here and hopefully someone may be able to help. We're looking for parts for the above bike but the main problem is sourcing the metal headtube badge. Anyone know where one may be sourced? Any help is greatly appreciated. G.

    Velojumble?

    There's a big one coming up at the Velodrome in Manchester in Jan 2012.

    Let us know how you get on.

    Bit far though - note my location. One of the reasons why I believe people should give their location (as local as county would do).

    I won't bother to mention the Andre Bertin Vintage Bike Parts Outlet Centre in Dublin.

    Point taken - sorry! Didn't mean to appear ungrateful, because I'm not. Unfortunately we don't have any bike jumbles in Ireland and it's a bit costly to cross the pond. Did find a vintage bike website so hopefully something will turn up for my buddy.

    Just joking, Garry. Good luck with the search.

    Might be worth posting something on retrobike either in the forum and/or the 'bits wanted' section.
