Pop rivets for fixing a head badge

[porteous]

Does anyone know what size pop rivets I need to fix a head badge on?

I dont know but wonder if pop rivets would be a good idea at all. The hole would allow water in. I think I would consider glueing it on with epoxy or sikaflex or similar.

my lbs claims that Raleigh use to use a special kind of rivet !!

They always looked like small copper rivets to me.

Argos cycles (Bristol, not your local catalogue store) use tiny pop rivets. Given Argos' reputation for fine work I think PRs should be OkK

I will fill the hole with devcon. Finding the brass rivets is almost impossible then you have to peen them from inside.)

There is a type of rivet some makers used,domed head,twisted splines on the shaft.These just tapped in,cant remember the name of them,even got a few somewhere.
