Race number hanger..

[Helmut Head]

Hi all, I've just bought a late 80's road bike and after getting it home I have found that there used to be a race number hanger on the underside of the top tube. It is going to be resprayed so thought I would replace it.

I've searched all over the net (with no success) to find a replacement to braze on - does anyone know where to source one from?

Cheers, Mr Head

@danson67 seems to be the man in the know for frame building bits n pieces

Ceeway which is frame building supply will have one of these braze on pieces.

Yes, Ceeway do a couple of different versions. Under a quid each, probably.
The site's pretty last century, so give Peter a ring or email and he can send you one.

I've not got any myself in stock, but they are just a small steel plate with an M5 threaded hole.
Alternatively, does your sprayer do small repairs etc.?

All the best,

Thanks Kermisking & Danson67 - I've sent ceeway an email - so hopefully I'll be sorted.
