In 1973 I purchased a new Raleigh Competition bicycle. I still own it after 37 years! I\u2019m in the process of restoring it for personal use. It has a lot of sentimental value to me and is a joy to ride when it\u2019s in good condition. I\u2019m looking for a replacement of by front brake which was broken in a crash during a century race in the early 90\u2019s. It\u2019s a Weinmann brake with the following written on it: Weinmann 750 Vainqueur 999. I also need to replace the Raleigh head-badge which was destroyed during the sandblasting of the frame. I was referred to this site by a local bike builder and I hope that someone will have the replacement parts that I need. I have photos if needed.
