What's a head badge? Think of it as a hood ornament for your bicycle. It gets mounted to the front part of your bike's head tube. Most bicycles these days have a wimpy plastic head badge or, even worse, a painted logo. But you're unique, and you want your bicycle to reflect you (not the company that you bought the bike from). Which is where a custom head badge comes in..

If you can draw it as a simple black & white line drawing, then I can make it into a head badge. I will take your design, transfer it onto your choice of copper or sterling silver, pierce it out by hand, then file off the sharp edges, add some texture, form it to fit your bike, and add any patina you might like.

Basic pricing: Copper: $80-125, Sterling Silver: $95-140 (depending on complexity).

Turn around time is approximately 1 week from receipt of payment. (Please note that I am currently on the road on an extended bike tour, so production time may be affected by my current location.)

To order, or if you have any questions, please contact me via email.
