so it looks like i bought a fake bike :(

this is an update on how to tell if a bike is stolen

SerialSpecialized

it turns out that this bike was not stolen the serial number checked out with specialized. however once i purchased it i brought it into the shop for a tune up and i learned i had a whole other problem. it turns out this bike is a counterfeit. i was not aware this kind of thing even existed. i still find it strange that someone could be good enough to manufacture a carbon bike yet choose to scam people instead of starting a legitimate bike company. the specialized company has apparently seen an increase in this type of thing recently however this was the first time a forgery included an actual serial number. which i assume was just copied from an authentic bike. i know this is what i get from buying outside of an authorized dealer but i just don't have that much money to spend on a bike. since i sold my car i have been saving up the money that would have been going to gas to buy a race bike but figured i could get a good deal off the second hand market. well buyer better beware i guess. although i was looking out for stolen bikes i never considered the possibility it was counterfeit.

as a result i am out the money and left with this fake bike. however the specialized company is livid that this bike that they did not produce has their name all over it. they want me to turn it in to an authorized dealer for destruction. which will leave me with no money and no bike. so hopefully writing this here will help someone else learn from my mistake.

1981 Specialized Sequoia Bottom Bracket
In later models the size of the frame was on one side and a serial number on the other. This was all together. This frame is 47cm. I believe the earlier Konno bikes only had the frame size, the bikes that followed these were made by Miyata & have a M at the beginning of the serial #.

'1' probably means 1981, and '50' is the serial number? Edit: '50' is the frame size, the '1' I don't know. Apparently the frame is a 1982 model, not a 1981.
