Early Intense Cycles serial number help, please...

[freddok]

Hi All,

I've sourced a cool Uzzi SL some weeks ago but I'm not sure about year of the frame. Serial code is M12887.
After some search I've see here it can be "1st Letter is the Size, 1st Number is Year Produced, 2nd Number is Month produced, Last numbers is the frame off the Production Line."

But this combination doesn't match with my serial number as Intense was created in 93'. For me it's a least a 96' as the 97' and later had disc mount.
If someone can help me, thanks in advance...

Fred

hello by the way ,.Greetings from Norway
I am also in the same " boat":..im looking for info on which year production my Intense m1 is.I also got a reply from Intense EU, and they said based on my serial number...when running it in their database..it says its a 1995...which clearly is not correct. But after alot of searching ,answering questions etc in facebook groups..it is looking to be a 1998...BUT...i have also a feeling after seeing many m1"s..that it might be a late 1997....and when looking at my serial number...it might make sense that it can be a August ( 8 ) 1997 (7)....if the two last digits are the production year etc..and the 3 first numbers are actual serial number/or production number. And i see you have the same...87 in the last two digits....so its just a thought..as your bike very much can be a 1997 aswell... here is my serial number
