Too bad about the head badge. Clear silicone caulking works very well. A dollop on the back of the badge is all you need. hNg the bike from a hook so that the head tube is rather horizontal while the silicone cures. Jason Cloutier Pawtucket, RI On Tuesday, April 29, 2014 8:14:17 PM UTC-4, Ma

glad you found your head badge. At a water stop on an overcast day last weekend, I left my glasses sitting on my small front trunksack and rode off. When I got home and realized I wasn't wearing my glasses, my heart skipped. Before heading back to my water stop, I looked at my front rack and

On some Rambous we screwed them on, but noticed a small percentage had a big of rubbing on the steer tube from the screws (well, pop-rivets), and we had to go through 50 frames and check each and disassemble and punch out the rubberguy to avoid any long-term catastrophe...so no mas on that. I u

I have riveted the headbadge on a few old Raleighs it's a different look than tiny screws. A little more utilitarian and vintage. On Apr 29, 2014 10:46 PM, "Chris Chen" wrote: > TINY TINY RIVETS! > > > On Tue, Apr 29, 2014 at 7:36 PM, Peter Morgano wrote: > >> Wouldn't you need to thread the hole

Och! Brutal. No idea what the Riv. recommendation is (I'd call and ask), but I've glued St. Christopher Medals to bikes using Rubber Cement. Apply thinly to both (well cleaned) surfaces, allow to dry (15 minutes?), press together with solid grip and hold for a few minutes. That's it. Never lost
