Right now it's the serial # that has me stumped no letters in it? Value
of bike I really don't care about, I can get my money back in parts I'm
sure. The Brooks saddle I think is an old Swallow, but I'm still
checking on it as the tag is missing.
****mano I think was on the crank, and I didn't see any reynolds steel
decals on frame or forks.
