Panasonic PR6000

Still loving clattering about on this; bought from Mr Edwards a couple of years back. Haven't had it refurbished, but might do in a few years time. It should be following me on holiday in France this summer.

V Cool. Is that the ex John Talen one?

 

[Rolling Thunder]

The very same Sir. It's glorious to ride.

Very nice bike . I had one that was the Pro ride of Patrick Stroucken when he raced for Peter Post's Panasonic team . It was a great handling bike even though it had been well used .

It really does handle well. Mine is battered and bruised, and I may well refurb it next year, but for now...enjoying it. Did you sell yours?

 

[kermisking]

Yes I sold mine a shame because it fit great but I have and had too many bikes . It definitely opened my eyes to the top quality of Japanese bikes though ! Eddy Planckaert's Panasonic was for sale recently on Netherlands Marktplaats , now I am fairly certain that bike would have had a lot of stick . Eddy was notorious for not giving a fig about looking after his bikes , didn't seem to slow him down though .

Such a shame, but if you have so many, then it's understandable. Marktplaats broke my heart when they started requiring an EU phone number for verification. So many lovely frames I'd like to haggle over!!!!
