M7L*****.1987 right, but made in december 87.so would be considered an 88. I have one goose decade serial, the owner said the decals didnt look like a 1987, heres the serial I only have one clear example here due to lack of serial posts. This is from a lonnnngg list of 85 goose serials i have been storing and a few hints from a few that claim to know the secret.ġ986: gets wierd again, remember this is when the freestyle thing came in, and some companies started selling out or going overseas. Like this:Ĩ4 is another ames match but we need more serial entries like these.ġ985: gets easier (after emailing numerous owners all over numerous sites) Other than the cruisers which are easy to i.d. In 1983 you are on your own figuring out the difference between a cali,or expert, the only other frams were the mitigoose, and supergoose, which are easy to figure out. M3-K8634 would be mongoose/1983/K november/ 8634 (build number) *update* the serials this year only give you the year, month, and build number, not the model. Some early serials start like this: CE9 or CD9.these 2 are May of 1979 & April of 1979.ġ983: the first looptails come out. And the "9" is the last digit of the year.1979. the "H" in that serial is the 8th month, which is sept. If you had the "T" in front, it meant it was a higher model, (team or super) if you have no "T" its a motomag or standard version. The "C" stands for chatsworth", which is where the original goose shop was in cali. To help make sense of the lettering is simple: if yours starts with CH9**** That would be a team (or super) january (a) first month, "0" for 1980 mongoose.Īnother hint is the supergooses had three (3) holes in the brake bridge after october 1981. They must be overseas frames but came in chrome so are supergooses. UPDATE: it seems that some time around 79-80 and later, some supergooses were made, but not in chatsworth. supergoose came in chrome only, the teams were nickel plated with either a blue or red coating. If it starts with: TC, this means its a team or supergoose. Mid 1981 to early 1982 they started using the stepdown dropout with the 2 holes machined in it, thus, the birth of the "super" dropout. Late 1977 to mid 1979 they added the brake bridge but lost the coaster mount. back then the serials were sometimes only 4 numbers, so looking at the frame was the only way to id the year.

I have confirmed this Redline serial number crack many times against bikes that have been known to be purchased that year, bikes with distinct graphics and colours and checked them against available Redline BMX catalogues. The Serial has a build date of 2008, it was confirmed in the catalogue it was a 2009 model. This is the case with the 2009 Redline Proline Pro below. So a build date on a frame of 2003 usually means the bike was sold in stores in 2004. Frames were normally manufactured the year before being sold in bike shops. Please note: The Redline serial number will give you the build date of your Redline BMX. The above bike is a (2005 built 'P') 2006 Redline Proline Flight 24.Ģ001-2010 – 2 letters at beginning, 2nd is year

I spent quite a bit of time looking into the Redline serial numbers on a few of my bikes as well as checking against other Redline BMX owners to see if my serial number crack was right. This guide may not work for all Redline BMX bikes built between this time and I have listed below which Redline serial numbers it does work for. The serial number guide will help date Redline BMX bikes made between 20. This post is intended to be used as a helpful guide to help read your Redline serial number and find out what year your new school Redline BMX was built and sold in bike shops. When rebuilding and restoring old BMX bikes it's extremely helpful to know exactly how your bike is. Mongoose serial numbers were first and then GT serial numbers.

Redline is the third brand of new school BMX that I have researched and cracked the serial numbers for dating the age of BMX bikes.
