Find serial number for records.
Handle bars have been changed to Scott DH Aerobar ??
Bike is original as purchased in 94.
Welcome to the forums. Yes, your bicycle is a 1985 model. The Aerobars are a definite customer revision and the 1985 Elite RS was spec'd with Shimano New 600EX. However, the 600EX decal is another customer add-on, as it is for the 1978-1983 generation of 600EX components. In the future, please take the overall picture from the driveside, as it aids in identification of the drivetrain components.
