Interesting article on deciphering Taiwan-made serial numbers posted today: https://www.rivbike.com/blogs/news/how-to-decode-your-rivendells-serial-number

Seems easy to guess that M frames would come from Maxway, does anyone know who the other builder would be?

Interesting and I can confirm my TIG Roadini has a T series serial. 

Ultimately though it’s only an academic interest for me, as the quality appears very high regardless!

AOA32AL00** doesn’t compute for a roughly 2016 Clem, or does it? Maybe I missed something 
This did get me to look down there and swipe with a rag. My rear shift cable is looking rough, I should try deciphering more often…
