Greetings All, s/n A161267. How do I figure out the date of manufacture? The one chart I found says 1931. I don't think that's right.
 
It's a Columbia Built Speedliner. Has a 2 speed (lever shift) hub. Jon

The bike in the pictures is 1950s. The Bendix hub on it was sold roughly 1955 to 1960. I would guess Jan 1961 from the A1xxxx number. Is that close enough? Roger
