mk I serial no. can be found on seat post tube.
mk II serial no. can be found underneath the bottom bracket



Dating your bike:

Eg, NH44629

First letter...
N > Nottingham

Second letter... month
A - JAN
B - FEB
D - MAR
E - APR
G - MAY
H - JUN
K - JUL
L - AUG
M - SEP
N - OCT
P - NOV
S - DEC

2,3,4,5,6 etc = the year 82, 83 and so on

so NH44629 would mean -

Made in Nottingham , June 1984


The remaining numbers of the serial number have believed to be the production numbers for that month, but due to ridiculously high numbers given this is said to be practically impossible to produce. There could be some truth in it but as of yet no one knows for sure.
