I have a Panasonic Aero frame road bike...built in 1981...Years before others claimed they built the first Aero frame bikes...Japanese steel road bikes are the best bikes ever !!!

@Zifengtower Ай бұрын

Hi! How can i get a bike like this? Are they sold in any bike shop?

@stormshaman Ай бұрын

Who was claiming that years after the fact? 1981 is when Shimano released their AX aerodynamic groupset. Miyata had an aero frame by 82, as did others I'm sure, and Araya had aero rims.

人生最後のバイク、長く愛せるバイクとして近年購入しました。丁寧な仕事を経て私の元に届いたのですね。本当に良質なフレームです、安心して命を預けられると言っても過言ではない。ショップの店員さんも「Panasonicは精度、品質が高く安心してお客さんに勧められるし、組むのも楽！」と。大切にします。

This is the first time I’ve ever seen it’s done in a factory using large machinery but still maintaining the high quality of a bespoke product. Thank you for your hard work 🙏

私のクロモリバイクは、ブリヂストンのネオコットとパナのPOS。カイセイ8630Rを使ったカーボンフォークモデルが出てすぐの頃購入。 POSのいいところは、気軽に信頼できる自分だけのフレームが手に入るところ。価格を見ると、私が購入した頃よりはるかに高騰しているけれど、それでもカラーオーダーもできるし、ジオメトリーも日本人向けで細かいサイズ展開だしで、その飽きのこない伝統的なデザインからも、まだまだ存在意義は大きいと思う。 POSの信頼性は、はるかに高額なビルダー製作品をも凌ぐものという点も非常に大きい。ロードバイクブームは去ったけれど、これからも頑張って続けてほしい。

No doubt it’s brazed you’re right translation error in German „hart löten“ is with brass or silver and löten is with tin (for electric/electronic) Welding would weaken the thin steel tubes to much- the Ti tubes in the film are being welded there I was astonished that it was done in normal atmosphere I thought it must be done in atmospheare without oxigene (in German „Schutzgas“)

Panasonic makes everything from bikes to prefab houses (Panahome). I lived in Japan from 95-97 and I recall seeing a commercial for an early ebike. In the commercial, it talked about how going downhill to the station in the morning was a breeze but going uphill on the way home was bothersome. Now, there's a solution!

My heart skipped a beat when I saw the Keirin frame introduced to the mix... I have two Panasonic Keirin frames-a 2020 and a 2018-and they are among my favorites. To witness where they were made has my mind in hula-hoops. So dope. Incidentally, to acknowledge a criticism here in the comments, one of my frames has a single decal on the drive-side chain stay... The other has a decal on every tube on both sides of the frame... I love them equally and find the branding adorable-regardless of its presence :)

@@PrograError Many bicycles produced in Japan are electrically assisted. Many inexpensive bicycles made in Taiwan and China are sold in Japan as well. However, Bridgestone, Maruishi Cycle, and Panasonic also make regular bicycles in Japan. I bought a Japanese-made one for my junior high school son 10 years ago because of the quality. I decided that if I could get a product that was guaranteed to be safe for a child's life, it would be cheap. Even when my two sons ride it every day to go to school, there is no accident due to malfunction. I can still ride it comfortably.
