Hi,
I got this lovely 18" Panasonic MC Pro 1991 up for sale.
Their top modell according to the Dutch factory catalogue uploaded on this site in the archives section. Made from Tange Prestige Concept steel tubes.
Paint is rough and the front mech cable pulley mount (with the top tube cable routing it does not needed anyway) became loose. Can be welded back easily if a repaint is due anyway. I didn't want to respray it so I left it as it is and fitted a top-pull M736 XT front mech, which works well with the top-tube cable routing.
Panaracer tires, Araya rims, Ritchey parts are in good condition.
Could not find a serial number so I suspect it's a pre-series example or ex-teamworks bike.
HG Chain/grips/rear Pana' tire/BB left cup/Deore XT sharkfin/front brake cable hanger were new/NOS when I rebuilt the bike some time ago.
Weight is 11.6 kg pictured.
Parts list:
Bars/stem/saddle/grips : Ritchey
Mechs/hubs/STIs/brakes/sp. quick release/BB/pedals/sharkfin: Shimano Deore XT M730-735 series
Rims: Araya hard anodized alloy
Tires: Kevlar Panaracer Spike rear, wire-beaded Panaracer Dart front.
Seatpost: SP-248 27.0 mm x 350 mm Kalloy-Ritchey design
Headset: Shimano 1", with new bearings.

Price: 400 GBP + shipping
Cheers,
