Hello, tonight I have this early Ruttman. I bought this frame before restore from a respected member. Y'all may not see him anymore on here but all the members from 10-15 years ago know him. A random person told me today that my early Ruttman's ID stamp on the underside of the engine plate was faked. He claimed he had the catalogs for the early Ruttman ID numbers. Said that this happens w Ruttman frames. That people fake stamp the frames to make them appear "early". Has anyone heard of this ? And does anyone have catalogs of Ruttman Bikes w ID's ? Or heard of that ? I love the education and want to learn more than I know. Here's a pic of the frame and the stamp before restore. Thanks in advance.
