Idea for real RivCustom head badges. What would yours be?

[lungimsam]

You get a Riv Custom - you get a head badge with pic of a loved-one or pet on it.

Move the regular badge to the seat tube - no label, just badge. It is a Custom, after all. And that would class it up.

 

Have "Rivendell   _Name of loved one/pet______" on the seat tube.

 

What would yours be?

 

Freddie Hoffman could get a "Ruthie" model, with his Mom's pic on the badge.

A custom headbadge would be a pricey option, like the custom frame itself. Just stating the obvious here. You could get your own jeweler to craft you a badge, I think the Rivendell builder would install it for you, assuming Riv HQ's prior approval.

Chris Kostman does this. His Roadeo at the bottom of the page has one of his own custom headbadges that are also shown at this page sort of near the bottom. Check it out:

It figures Kostman would do this. His "Classic Cyclist" articles were laughable in their smugness, and head-swelling ego attitude. I kept waiting for the section where he would say the classic cyclist has "just the right haircut" as part of looking just right.

Ouch. Let me know before you critique the writings of that Bike Tinker guy.

For the frameset I made I had Jen Green make a sterling silver
headbadge to my design. Cost back then was $150. Not sure what she
charges now but she does GREAT work - I'd HIGHLY recommend her.
