wondering if someone could enlighten me on what year my arc was made. everyone asks...i never have an answer.

i believe its mid-early 90's, but don't know any specifics. can't find a serial number or any sites differentiating what makes each year different.

has a durango sticker. has a canti-hanger. steer tube's 1.25 inches (put reducer in). no yeti badge on the front.

the only thing that's original (other than the frame) is the bottom bracket and some of the brake tubing. so that might make it more difficult to identify.

thanks!

I suggest you x-post to the Vintage forum too...those guys know their stuff pretty well

here's a good source on yeti hardtail history http://www.yetifan.com/bikeography_ht.html

make sure you give the Vintage dudes the bike's serial number... Serial numbers normally have a code designating production year for the frame.

This ones pretty easy to date,

Also, check your frame number, its inside the non dirve side drop out.

I have an ARC exactly lilke that, mine is a 1992, and is A0850.

I am thinking yours is a 93.

Look out for cranks at the Seat Clamp area and the headtube can split after all this time, other than that, no worries.
