Serial Number Format - 2015 & Older

Serial Number Location

The serial number on your Sun Seeker recumbent is permanently stamped on the frame.

Tips:

• The serial number is usually located under the recumbents bottom bracket,  but it can also be on the head tube or the inside or outside edge of the rear dropout.
• The serial number is stamped into the frame before painting and can be challenging to read, so please look it over carefully.
• The serial number may be formatted as one or two rows and stamped along the edge or across the BB shell.

Record Your Serial Number

Recording the serial number of your recumbent is a good idea for several reasons:

1.  Theft Prevention and Recovery: If your recumbent is stolen, having the serial number recorded will help law enforcement agencies identify and recover it. The serial number is a unique identifier for your recumbent, and many police departments use these numbers in their databases for stolen property.

2.  Proof of Ownership: In the event that you need to prove that the recumbent is yours, the serial number can serve as proof of ownership. This is particularly useful if you need to claim the recumbent from police custody or deal with insurance claims.

3.  Insurance Purposes: Some insurance policies for recumbents or personal property might require a serial number to provide coverage or to process a claim if your recumbent is lost or stolen.

4.  Warranty Claims: If you ever need to make a warranty claim, the manufacturer may require the serial number to verify the recumbent model and age.

Remember to keep this information secure and private, as it is unique to your recumbent.
