I just received my 2016 specialized dolce elite and i just wanted to thank you for a great transaction.
Gt bike serial number.
Vintage and older gt bikes may have serial numbers placed on other areas of the frame such as the seat stays next to the rear dropouts or the head badge.
However to make bikes as easy as possible to find feel free to enter all numbers you encounter.
Gt serial numbers are usually found stamped on the bottom of the bottom bracket of your bmx.
Frames excluding those listed below.
Three years from original retail purchase.
If the bike frame was manufactured at the santa ana ca facility the first three or four digits of the serial number should be letters abbreviating the model or size of the frame such as xl xxl cr24 or something like that.
Frames of gravity freeride downhill dirt jump and other astm category five bicycles.
Modern gt bikes feature the bicycle s serial number on the underside of the frame and will be accompanied by a bar code.
Lifetime of the original owner.
Here is an email i got from an actual employee of gt.
The next part of the serial number is eight numeric digits.
Gt bicycles remains true to sharing the stoke on two wheels which the brand was founded on because after all you can t.
Since 1972 gt bicycles has proudly been developing bikes for every type of rider with a consistent mission.
In this picture 200910427 2a is a manufacturer number and not a serial number.
That mission is the same reason everybody throws a leg over their very first bike pure fun plain and simple.
Okay fine so maybe there are a few bikes without serial numbers but this is rare and typical only on hand made bikes or really old bicycles.
