Makes mine look like a POS!!

Inspirational build mate, love the videos as well.

Mine has a noodle instead of a cable stop for the rear brake - does that make mine earlier or later than yours?

Thank you!

The noodle was a later edition to replace the brazed on rear cable stop.
The E3 also had the same modification.
What's the date stamp on your E2?

Well that's put that theory out of the window, as your frame is earlier than mine!
:facepalm:
Is it a 19" frame?

Re:

How do you decipher the frame no.?

Can't remember size, it could be, I'll have a measure.

 

[emjay]

Your frame no: A311*****

A= A-pro
3= 1993
11= November


The rest of the numbers are the frame builders wives vital statistics.

Post me a pic of the frame and I can usually tell the frame size
