Very nice and interesting. Yes, it is pretty rare. There are more of the RidgeRunner. I encountered another one (or this one?) on a trail several years ago, but that is what I have seen live. This model was succeeded by other welded aluminium frames, like the '91 and '92 TrailRunner and the...

Miyata manufactured the frames for Koga from 1974 up to 1996. In the early/mid 90s frame production in Japan became very expensive and other frame production locations gained momentum (Taiwan). Models like the 1997 Survivor of 1997 Explosion (twin down tube frame) are made by Hodaka, even though...

$75 well spent :cool:

Yes, I used Mike Sanders on my Aquafade Yo already 20 years ago. You need to heat the stuff up to 100+ degrees and you need a compressor with serious spray gun. I can't think of better protection. A spray can Fluid Film ASR offers also good protection and much easier to work with. They are...

I am pretty sure this is 1994

Nice score! I think this will be about my favourite GT.

I think you did really well! I do still have your old '91 TerraRunner-C. It is the second one in this pic >>

Hi Steven, yes I do remember. That was a long time ago. Twenty years? You got the frame form Heemskerk and the Pro-Flex from Purmerend? It looks very nice. Congrats!

I think they are appreciated by many. They are among my favourite bikes.

Panasonic was available in Europe too. In the Archive you will find catalogs in German and Dutch. Panasonic left the US market around 1990 and the European market around 1995. They are still available in Japan. There is an interesting website that covers in particular US line ups >>...

Both the 9000 and the 900 are excellent for transporting bikes.

Yep. Here my 9000 anniversary. I do also have a scarabee green 900i-16.

57cm '91 TerraRunner-Carbolite :cool:

Very nice entries so far. Next entry is... Elev12K's early 90s Panasonic team MTB Thread on the bike: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/panasonic-team-mtb.468644/

Here a pic of another Professional SLX. I regularly visited the lbs to see what was traded in. The shopowner often kept interesting stuff seperate for me. On a day he showed me this SLX. I think it is a refurbished KNWU frame. The steerer is marked 'KNWU'. I sold the later era Campagnolo...

The Batavus Professional SLX came with Columbus SLX tubing for frame and fork. Other characteristics: - Cinelli spoiler bottom bracket shell - Cinelli aero crown - Everest lugs - Campagnolo drop outs - Chromed drop outs and drive side chainstay - 'Batavus' engraved in stay caps - Two 'B'...
