Coventry Eagle inquiry
Hello, I was given a Coventry Eagle by a friend who recently went to South Korea to teach English. I was trying to get as much information about the bike that I possibly could such as how much it would be worth and when it was made. There is no serial number to be found on the frame. There is a sticker on the inside frame underneath the seat that says Rynolds Frame Tubing from what I can make out. The seat is a Brooks champion standard b15, the cranks say maxy, the brakes are Weinmann 610 Vainoueur 999, the gears in the back read Shimano Titlist GS, and the handlebars read Cinelli Mod Giro. I will post photos for everyone to see and get a look at what is on it.

Serial numbers are almost always worthless/useless. I would not spend a lot of time looking for them. Almost all components have date codes. So if you are sure some parts are original, look them up at the vintage Trek site.
