Looking at that pic it's a 1 or a 3, my expert has the larger US bb :crazy2:

Glad I just noticed the forks earlier, that was enough :LolLolLolLol:

There was a thread about the serial numbers on the museum that had also had some info about what the different frame size numbers meant and they TT length, that is, 4 = Pro = 18.5" ,3 = Expert = 17" etc, but I can't find it at the mo :-\
