Serial numbers by themselves don't tell who manufactured your bike. You need the brand name, the kind and size of bike is also helpful

I was able to find the answer on a California University website. The model number was on the bottom of the bike near the pedals.

Bicycle serial number RK7 Who makes it

That's not a serial number, and it does not much matte what brand it is, especially because some overseas factories made the same frame for more than one brand. For more info see my tip:

Schwinn cruiser frame serial number U22Y48168 under crank, forward facing drop out. the tubes run on outside of seat post, not welded into it on both sides. what can you tell me about this frame?

The serial number alone is not always helpful, including in this case. You need to specify what the model is (written on frame or chainguard). If the bike has been repainted it does not matter much how old it is, most of the value is gone. Look for an additional number on the head tube - may have a date code. Google "Schwinn serial number" for more info or check my tip:

I have an old bicycle that was my father's first bike, he was born 1947, but I dont know what make or model it is, the serial number is e85419..

The make is normally on the head tube (where the fork goes through the frame) and the model is on the side of the frame or on the chainguard. If those are no longer present then the serial number is not going to help you at all, as there is no universal system for serial numbers, so there may be multiple bikes with the same serial number, especially ones as simple as yours. The photo is not close enough to tell if there's any writing on the bike. If you are interested in resale value it is critical to have the original make and model on the bike. I will tell you that the seat may be relatively valuable.

I have a Schwinn bicycle with serial number FP571028 what can you tell me about it? Do you have a picture of one?

Schwinn Bicycle Production Codes

According to this gentleman's chart, the bike was produced in Chicago during June of 1978. I suspect you would have to contact Schwinn Chicago in order to find information on the bicycle with that exact serial number. Good luck!
