Hi All, another newbie here. Just acquired a mk 1 for my 1st resto. Always wanted one as a kid but never had one. Trying to date my new acquisition. I can't see a date on the rear hub but the number on the rear dropout looks like 1350118. Can anybody advise here?

Welcomes :-) I can't help with your date. Soz, but soon you'll have an answer.

Late 1971? I have a 9-71 rear hub & the stamping is really faint so it might be worth having another look.

according to the chopper restoration manual, only mk 2's can be dated by their frame number
the sturmey archer hub date is the only way to determine a mk1, and hope it has the original wheel
