So I'm doing up an old bike that was found in a barn, and was wondering if anyone has heard of the manufacturers - Haddon. Stepdad thinks they were associated with Raleigh, and would fit with the bits on there (Cottered cranks. What a bloody pain)
The main reason I ask (This is going to sound crass) is that the only result I turned up while googling was an ebay auction for a Haddon head badge, which went for about 10 quid in the end. So, before I get started hacking the old thing about to be my winter beater, I figured it might be a good idea to inquire as to the pedigree; after all I don't really want to go ruining a nice and possibly valuable old machine with my heavy-handed ways!
