Can anyone date this PK Ripper without a serial?

Interesting info about bikes having to have a serial number from 1980 onwards. I presume that was only California law, hence why the likes of Hutch frames continued to have no serial number (as they weren't made in California) until 83 ish

Plenty of good info already posted for you Clint about the serial numbers.
Now along with the serial numbers the other way to age a Loopy PK is the down tube decal, 79's had a single large square SE decal, 80's had a foil type decal that wrapped the seat mast and from then on it was your type of mast decal.

Also 79's are pre serial and have a thinner brake bridge than 80 onward.
Nice looking bike and worth a punt if the cash is right and maybe it will head over to me after that  :LolLolLolLol:

Ohh and I've now got your messages about the pedals, I'll send you a cage up if you still need one  :daumenhoch:
