meandmetoo Posted July 26, 2015 Share I recently purchased a 2nd hand track frame online. I was told it is a Giant Omnium. But it has been completely sprayed a ridiculous shade of green. All the serial numbers are visable. After comparing the frame to a Giant I'm pretty certain that it isn't. I asked another friend and he said he was sure it is a Bianchi frame. I tried to search serial numbers online but had no luck other than that the frame hasn't been reported as stolen. Is there a way to determine the manufacturer by the serial number? Did I possibly get the bargain of the century? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pure Savage Posted July 27, 2015 Share and who would spray it that awful colour? Only reason I would spray a frame like that is if it was originally the Lampre Merida colours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
