Skyway Frame Set
I have just acquired a Raleigh racing bike but it has been overpainted but the Frame number is WK9000035. So looks like a 1980 July model I think, the gear wires are above the bottom bracket. Due to the paint job cannot use and label or sticker data. Could you tell me the model type from the serial number please. A bike serial number is basically a string of digits that will have between six and 10 numbers in it. It is sometimes referred to as a bike frame number. Your serial number is very important to check on your bike and keep somewhere handy in case your bike goes missing because photos of your bike just aren’t enough in the event that you need.

Other things varied too. For one, the levers that first came on them were Odyssey RX-5(?). The disc also varied - some had the S and some had the round holes. I'm not 100% sure if this photo is from '86 or '87 but you can see the levers and disc is different than Scott's. I have the same levers and disc in the '87 tour poster but I think that picture is newer since I have the mini bars and the Spinmaster II. So... I think that makes this photo late 86/early '87 at the newest.
The first 2-tone beat I got was grey and white. Definitely in 1986 and came with the S cutout disc.
If you look on the spec sheet on my site, they say 'components subject to change without notice'.
One thing I suspect also suspect is that there was some older '85 being sprayed 2 tone. *Maybe* if you got a frame/fork only you'd get an '85 and the tapered fork Taiwan ones were just completes? I don't know for sure on that one.
I am also piecing together a blue/gray one but plan to get an unpainted one sprayed.
