Not sure about the year of this frame either. Serial number on dropout OT 3796. I know its got Haro freestyle forks on it and the rest of the stuff it had was junk so I took it off. Can anyone help me ID the year or model? I picked this one up from a guy named Lyle Drexler, known locally as the "Bike Man". He died two years ago.

A few questions:

Length of top tube
Thickness of tubing on the headset, need to take the cups off to check

Can give you a better answer after those are answered.

OK, I'll dig it back out and see what I come up with. I should have measured the top tube when I had it out but I was pressed for time. I'll bring it home and take it all the way apart.

A quick check of the top tube length shows 18 inches. I hope this is close, it was still hanging from the ceiling when I measured it.

If thin tubing then a LPCM in Torker terms.

If thick mild steel tubing the a LPMS.

Torker serial numbers have no date code. Your length is the most common frame from Torker and they produced this style of frame from 1978 - 1982.
