Trek bike serial number search.
It provides a record of your serial number in case your bike is ever lost or stolen and will help us get in touch with you with important product information.
So turn your bike around and look for the spot where the two pedal cranks join.
The vintage trek website uses sn but ends with 1997 and i think my trek is 21st century.
You need to match up the make model to a particular year.
Try either bikepedia or bicycle blue book.
It takes a little bit of research on your part but i show you where to go and what to look.
In the case of some early 80s treks the number is under the plastic cable guide on the bottom of the shell.
I know the serial number and numbers stamped at the bottom of the frame but i don t know how to find the exact model year.
If you search for 1234 you will only find bikes with serial numbers of 1234 and serials close to that not a bike with serial number of 12345689.
I show you the steps i use to find the model year of trek bikes.
