If I remember correctly what David Lynskey told me, the symbols on his head badge have some meaning. The shamrock honors his mother's Irish heritage and the eagle honors his father's English heritage. Between us, my wife and I have three Lynskeys and both they and their head badges are fine.
I wish I still had the head badge from my 1970s made-in-Nottingham-England Raleigh Gran Sport. Beautiful bike and cool head badge.

My EL-OS.
My other Mondonico has a decal, since it was one of the last batch of frames he built, they used the original Mondonico design used by Antonio's father. That would make a sweet head badge.
I also have badges on two other bikes, but those designs have already been posted here. The '9' badge on my Niner RIP9, and the Soma.

Saw a sweet current example today
Went with a friend to Ti-Cycles Portland today. Watched him spend some coin too.
Ti Cycles :: Hand Made in Portland, Oregon USA
Anyway, customers lugged frame in a bike stand and the head badge I thought was worthy of this thread.
I took a phone camera pic that is not very good, so from the website, and a garment picture showing the detail in case the pic is not the best representation...
But I think it is the perfect PNW spirits captures.
Eric there designed it, Nice Job Eric!!

I had a bit of any "Ouchy" on my Litespeed a couple of years ago which resulted in a dented top tube. Sent it to Dave Levy at TI Cycles for repair and he did a beautiful job.I was a bit worried about proper alignment after a top tube replacement but, I shouldn't have. It is a rock solid ride.
Dave builds bikes in both TI bikes and steel. I hope I never have need for another repair on my TI bikes, but if I do I'll feel confident in having Dave do the job.
