Doesn't tell the time/ date that they manufacture Any expert here like to shed some light here? In addition to KJPoon's excellent information, there is some pretty good info to be found via Google.

The CR list has a lot of experts who can tell you more than you ever wanted to know. And if everything else fails, you can always email the factory with your serial number. But do this last. In my case, I have a very rare steel cyclocross bike that does not have a serial number, and as a result, the factory could not give me any information. It was one of two bikes built as 'favors' for riders. The, in the mid '70s, went to Roger de Vlaeminck.
