I do have the serial number, but it is confusing. This bike is a weird color
green with pink Hardrock on the down tube. Well, I shouldn't call it a bike.
It is a frame with a rear derailleur. I am considering whether it is worth
the trouble to buy parts and build up a bike using this frame, that's all.
I have used google and I have written Specialized with no luck.
Here is what is written on the bottom bracket:
B1 0196SP
WBK K
M8GN23205
It has Shimano Altus rear derailleur. I am wondering if it was made in 1996,
but that's just a guess.
