50/50 fella, you'd need someone to translate the serial for you
Or it could be like the Big Daddy / Sugar Daddy - same frame just different names for different time periods

p.s. here the forks I have if your interested

It's a Deebo fella - the headtube/downtube gusset's too long to be a TAJ (even the last run of the TAJ's with capped stays didn't have the same length gusset) combine that with capped chain/seat stays - still lovely tho! Although that crack/reweld doesn't look so good .......

Bit of a strange One that frame, looks like it's got the longer '99 year downtube gusset but a plain tube headtube, instead of a milled jobbie as per '99. 

[m1ke]

yeah thats what i was thinking  crossover taj to deebo odd job  or a rare proto type 

[Dannywhac]

I thought that the 2001 Deeb's had that headtube - might be wrong tho

[condor96]

99/00 deebo 

[m1ke]

yeah the more i look it does seem to be a deebo, was hoping it was a taj but im not too fussed at £25 for it, welding will getting down asap then its getting built up with new school parts 25/9 gearing etc etc as a daily ride

[fugazi]

It's deffo a Deebo, I've just never seen a long gusset version without the thick machined headtube. You'll only be able to go 39/14 or 36/13 at a push if You plan on using a brake 

[m1ke]

brakes what are they  will leave the brakes to the other bikes, will be removing the lugs on this

[stuntmaster]

deebo and look the same colour as my old one . god know where that went after i sold it
