Thanks ernie - I promise I won't clog up your thread with anymore questions now! Well, apart from one. Can we assume your frame was built by a bunch of Cali stoners? ;-)

Ok, so total speculation here. Maybe my madcap theory has some legs. The 6 could indicate a Ku if the 7 in mrdryskull's uber rare Caldera also indicates the model. Especially since both were made in 96...ok I need to lay off the diet Coke

Re: Re:

Yeah I agree that 06 is likely to be June 1996 and that yours is #58

This would indicate that the 1997 Ku in the link below runs with the same Serial number system - i.e. February 1997 #49

Sadly, my 1996 Ku throws a spanner in the works as the Serial number is KU0160 :roll:

I believe that they were hand built in Chico, California by Altitude Cycles.

We can assume that to a degree, check out the other threads linked here. There's a bit of a handover muddle to contend with!
