Decathlon Bike Reference Numbers: Match the Support Record
Decathlon bike reference numbers help separate support records that share a familiar family name. A page marked Elops 900 is not automatically the record for an Elops 900E, and adding an E changes the question before any instructions are compared. The useful starting point is the published REF alongside the complete model wording.

Decathlon bike reference numbers across three families
The Riverside support reference for the 500E is 8405314. The Elops 900E page labelled 2024 carries 8832046, while the conventional Elops 900 Aluminium Low Frame page carries 8548096 and a 2021 label. These are separate published records, even though two share the Elops name.
Tilt product codes show another pattern. The conventional Tilt 500 record is 8352597, labelled 2016. The electric Tilt 500E page groups 8500548, 8500547 and 8563418 together. One support page can therefore cover several references; assuming every code must have a separate page would miss that explicit grouping.
A record label cannot date an individual bicycle
The Tilt 500E page has a 2020 heading but also says it was in stores from 2018. Preserve both statements when identifying the document. Choosing one as the manufacturing year of a particular bicycle would add a conclusion the page does not establish.
Likewise, a Decathlon model code is not an individual frame serial number. The records above identify published model entries. They do not supply a universal serial lookup, tell you where every frame is stamped, or prove ownership. Elops model identification begins by keeping the electric suffix, frame description and REF together, rather than treating the family name as a complete identity.
The Decathlon topic collects this family of guides. Its introduction to Decathlon bicycle names gives broader context; the references here provide the narrower route to a support record.
Reference number FAQ
Does 8832046 identify the conventional Elops 900?
No. The cited electric Elops 900E record uses 8832046; the conventional aluminium low-frame entry uses 8548096.
Must I discard a Tilt 500E page with three codes?
No. Its own heading groups three published references, so that grouping should remain part of the identification.
Can a support heading prove the bicycle's production year?
No. A page label identifies the document's presentation, and the Tilt date discrepancy shows why it cannot settle an individual bicycle's manufacturing date.
