Hi peeps
I need help putting a date to a Redline, I don't have pics to upload at the mo but I e got the serial number whis is as follows.
DSBM
40202750
Redline in oval

Frame n forks are chrome but the forks have caps at the bottom and also the forks have no markings or stamps at all.

Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers

bobafett:
Pictures always help.

My guess = 1984

oldskooldayz:
Can't get any pictures at the mo I'm unfortunately as my uncle lives far away and uses an old prehistoric phone lol.
But thanks for the reply so far

Mikku:
Any idea of the model? In any case the "DSBM" means that it's a Taiwanese-made frame and I'm guessing that would be an 84/85, as I think most if not all of the Redline production had by then moved from the US and Japan to Taiwan.

oldskooldayz:
84/85 sounds good in terms of age, from what I remember when I last saw it and from pictures Ive seen it doesn't have the little plate behind the seat tube/tail.
Inside the BB all holes are open for seat tube and down tube if that helps, I will take a trip in a couple of weeks and take some pictures of it and hopefully that will clear up the mystery but really appreciate all the answers.
Cheers
