 "help"

Hi,
My son has aFitbike with a serial number of YJL0915509. Any idea as to what it is or what it is worth? I was told some time back that it was a Fit number 1.......
Cheers for your help!

Hi Thanks for the replies. Here are some pics. On One side of the BB is the serial number I quoted earlier and on the other side it says "NO.1" The fit logo is under the bottom bar near the headstock. Please ignore the forks and bars as they are new and not original. Cheers for your help in advance! He is now thinking of selling it, so if anyone can assess what model it is and/or are interested please let me know.

No idea how to id or date em and the No.1 could mean it's any one of these...
Dugan 1
Inman 1
PRK 1
STR 1
RL 1
VH 1

I do know they don't go for much though tbh. I picked up a virtually new PRK 1 for my lad not long since for £120. Same as this...

Thanks for your reply. I've just heard back from FitbikeCo in US and they have confirmed it is a series 1 Fitbike made in the first two years of the company before the serial numbers changed over to start with the letter F.
My son is seeking to flog it. Would this the best place to try and sell it?
Cheers :)

You could try selling it here but I'm guessing ebay would be your best bet tbh.  :daumenhoch:
