That arch geometry, with the tube connection, was only used around 1908-9.

The frame coincides with the 1908 catalog as you say, but the number is earlier. How many units you will say they produced a year? I'm trying to pin point the year exactly.

I’m not sure. IJ did not keep very exact records.

Very nice tall frame Iver........................needs quite a lot of TLC, but could be a real beauty. Pete in Fitchburg

From looking at other serial numbers, it seems like they probably averaged roughly 20k bikes/year, which could definitely put it in the 1907-08 range.
