Didn't Homer Simpson shoot holes in his car so it would go faster?

You should contact the seller. It may well be a steal of a deal.
Or it could just be stolen.

:roflmao2:

Could almost be that one. Slightly different gearing. Different rear dropout. Different brakes. Different crankset/gruppo.

But, yes, it is close :thumb:

Flintstone brakes?

I think that front tire is about to BLOW!!!

Darth Lefty 04-26-17 11:23 AM

I pretty often see Walmart bikes being used with both brakes opened up. I don't know how they survive.

That's a funny saddle too. Like an SMP met Gonzo the Great

"Vintage 1983 PANASONIC PT-5000 Touring Bike / Road Bike
I bought it in 83 New and put a Odometer on it has 688 miles on it.
It was the top of the line at that time.
I has 18 gears. Cannondale bag for rack,
Leather Petal toe inserts Made in France
It been 15-18 years ago that I used it every week.
The brakes and gear cables work well,
Front tire holds air, rear tire leaks overnight, might need a tube.
I changed the the seat to Selle Royal Made in Italy, Much better feel.
and put lights on it that will need to be re-wired.
This PANASONIC Touring Bike is from the golden age of lugged steel bicycles.
Hand assembled in Panasonic's Japanese factory,
the construction quality of the frame and components is top notch.
The frame is good, paint has honest wear and tear and needs cleaning.
Call Pat if you want to see it. 919 883-7368
No B.S. Scammers
Please see our other items"

It looks like it may have Tange 2 or Tange Champion 2 tubing. Double Butted Chromoly.

I doubt it was "top of the line" for Panasonic of the era, but it does look like a good solid bike.

Just needs some tuning. What happened to those bars?

688 miles in 34 years? I should get half that in this weekend. :eek:

It must not have too many tours for a touring bike.

Somebody turned them up. Around here, we call these "DUI-birds"....

Darth Lefty 04-26-17 03:21 PM

Bum-bars and small/small combination aside, I like that bike, it has features that appeal to me. I'm finding more hits about PT-3500 with Tange 1000 and Deore, so this one should be a notch better. Triple and a gigantic freewheel for going up cliffs. Cannondale bag too. I wonder if the generator - Panasonic brand! - still works or could be rebuilt, if the lights could be modernized with LED internals

$7500 "Gold" plated bike on craigslist. Just where I would sell something like that.

1981 Gold Plated Gianni Motta Trade Show Bicycle - $1 (eustis)

1981 new old stock never riden gold plated Gianni Motta road racing bicycle from the Paris/Milan/New York trade show. After the last stop in New York this was sold to Conrad's bicycle shop in New York City. Fully pantographed with a true Campagnolo Super Record group meaning the hub axle's,pedal spindals and bottom bracket are all titanium. This is most likely the best condition gold plated bike in exsistance. $7500

Hmmm,

Another problem with zeros? This time too few?

You'd think they'd at least show photos of the bike parking and bike repair facilities. :thumb:
