I had this with a Kona FM, clearly 93 spec but serial said 92.

Yeah built late 92 to arrive in the shops for 93 range release date.

Here's my Pantera I recently acquired.

Serial number simply tells you when the frame was produced. Not what model year it was.

No different to now where the next years bikes are released in around October.

The zaskar above is a 98.

Completely understand it was built for the 1998 release .

Isn’t it obscured though that we have to not refer to them with the date that’s actually printed on them.

It’s so easy to say it’s a 1996 frame……… and we know it

OK here is my "distressed Zaskar"View attachment 986340View attachment 986341

Nice. Hope you sort your cables out though they would drive me mental .

Nah, it just adds to the chaos and distress.
My other bikes are neater.

Because production date in many items doesn’t translate to either a release date or MY.

Think how long it takes from the actual production of a frame , until it’s sat inside a retailer ready to sell.
