I did forget to ask him what TBI means but assume you are likely correct with what you said but he did confirm that the TBI and following numbers are definitely not the serial number So in my case it appears that someones Trek was stolen and they reported it BUT they reported the TBI number instead of the serial so everyone I suppose with the same Trek Model, will likely appear to be riding a stolen bike LOL Yeah, try and explain that to the officer when hes convinced hes recovered a stolen bike -). So any numbers below that, are usually just Internal Identification numbers used for Trek. The serial number on a TREK they said always starts with WTU and then some numbers but it will ALWAYS end with a Letter. Thanks Berkley and you are essentially correct. If the bike you have does not match the reported stolen bike in color or model then I would not be concerned, especially if only half of the serial number was given for the other bike.

Often times you will see recalls where the company has determined that a specific run of bikes was defective, and will refer to a range of serial numbers that should be recalled. Serial numbers are used for reporting stolen bikes, as well as letting the manufacturer keep track of frame batches and things of that nature. The letters may reference the model, while the other numbers are the individual number unique to each bike. The second row is probably what distinguishes the bike and makes it unique.

This series of numbers will show up on many bikes. The first row is likely used to identify the brand and perhaps year, location built or something like that (something not unique to every frame produced). I agree that the serial number is the whole set of numbers, not just the first row. TBI probably stands for Trek Bicycles Incorporated, or something like that. Does anyone know what the TB1 numbers represent? This is mostly a shot in the dark, but here goes. Got that from the Trek page so obviously someone has reported the wrong number series on their bike. If your bike does not have a bar code, look for the serial number to be stamped into the bottom of the bottom bracket shell. Our newer bikes serial numbers begin with WTU, WW, WL or WR. Most of our newer bikes have a decal with a serial number barcode on it but older models have it stamped in the metal. Where do I find my bike’s serial number? You can locate your bicycle’s serial number on the underside of your bike near the crank/bottom bracket area. What other possibility could it be if it isnt that other treks for some reason have the TBI row of numbers on them but each one has a specific second row and the person reporting a bike that was stolen, just gave the first TBI row which might be a common set of numbers? Hope you understand what i am trying explain here.

Therefore, I need to double check something to do with the serials if anyone here knows the answers please? I have on this bike, 2 rows of numbers TBI0406 RX519073 ( the second row is a made up number as am not going to release a serial number here on the web for obvious reasons ) I believe, but am not positive, that the FULL 2 rows in full is the exact serial number, not just the first row starting with TBI Can anyone tell me 1) Is the serial both rows? 2) What does t he TBI etc stand for as i am sure this is on other bikes as well?ģ) What does the second row stand for? 4) How can the TBI row, show up as stolen when its listed to a completely different model number bike and color than mine, unless the person reporting it stolen gave the wrong number OR only half of the serial number? MY TREK BIKE'S SERIAL NUMBER IS WTU285C2646C, SO WHAT YEAR MODEL? Alpha 6 was Trek's.
