Restore your classic British roadster, vintage English 3-speed, or custom retro build to its full glory with this handmade Raleigh Bicycle Head Badge Emblem. Meticulously crafted for vintage Raleigh restorers, classic steel bike collectors, and custom frame builders, this emblem features the timeless Raleigh Heron logo rendered in heavy-duty fine-etched stainless steel with a sharp silver and deep black enamel finish.
