What are the little frame flag things called...

The things that have the racers number on?

I want one to go on the little lug on here on the tope tube, just behind the head tube.

Thanks.

:D

You mean just the race number? surely a piece of white plastic card (try a model shop) with a couple of holes punched and some kind of clip would do?

Yeah but i thought there was some kind of bracket for them...?

Is it just a bit of card with a random bolt through it?!

I think the team mechanics have been known to knock these up... bolted under the rear break assembly there was a mention of a more aero attempt by Cervelo or Cannondale in one of the mags I bought recently...
