Hi, Love the colour of your bike, i'm a newbie here and i'm trying to get some idea of the model and year of my bike, mine has the following no's stamped on it -Rear left outer dropout Huret 3556454 Rear left inner dropout 93516 BB has the same no as yours '609' Seatpost tube id is 26.6mm Weight of bare frame is 2kg Any thoughts on the ID? Got lots of work to do on researching the original spec, i would like to get the bike somewhere near it and then have some fun on it. Only id's I found were the '609' under the frame and the '2426850' and the 'A24' on the dropout. If anyone has a better idea than my guess I'd love to hear it. Seems all original except for the bars of course. I am guessing, just from quick reviews of 70's catalogues that this is around 74? I don t know, just a guess, based somewhat on the 1020 tubing specs. I've given it a quick once over and think it's actually going to stay with me now rather than sell. It was cheap and would have bought it anyway since it's the coolest color frame I've come across in a while. I came to the forums yesterday actually looking to find a way to date my garage sale pick up of a Moto Mirage.

Thanks for taking this on, and perfect timing on my end. The 1978 era ones seem to begin with a 4 (million?).

There is another number below the serial number that cannot be read in the photo. Find Serial Number On Asrock Motherboard. There is another stamped number, looks like 018. It is all original except the tires / tubes. I have a 1978 Motobecane Mirage, been in the family since new. If you look at other photos, you'll see that Motobecane did use the flat topped version of the number. The lead character actually appears to be several partial stampings of a '3', (see attached, highlighted photo).ДЄ '3' would be in sequence with the other submitted serial numbers.

I do not believe the lead number is a '7'.Д¬urrent data suggests the serial numbers are purely sequential with no year designator and a '7' would be greatly out of sequence. The numbers stamped on the drop outs are 47917. The bike's serial number on the bottom bracket is 7749062 followed by 702. I was given a motobecane bike how do i find the year and what it is worth? Serial number dating information for Motobecane's is very scarce. The owner of this bike received it as a stripped frameset and did an amazing job of painting and building what would. It can sometimes be difficult to nail down exact year of manufacture on these things as they rolled over both old photos and specs in some catalogs, and components may have fluctuated a bit from catalog specs depending on availability. Comparing the catalog photos and spec sheets, I determined it is a '77. I've checked out those exact sites back in 2009 when I originally posted my photos of the Super Mirage.
