F-i-N's Panasonic Mountain Cat

A few photos, taken a couple of weeks ago, of Fixed-in-Nara's gorgeous, vintage Panasonic Mountain Cat MTB...

You can follow F-i-N on Instagram and Twitter to see shots this and sometimes some of his other 500 bikes in action!

Vintage Nishiki

A vintage Nishiki roadie spotted at the Tour Of Japan opening stage in Sakai, Osaka last month. Nothing high end or flashy but it does have a certain charm...

Shimano's sport/recreational level Exage 400EX drive with the good old Bio Pace chainrings taking care of the cranks...

Always. Be. Prepared...

Battered 'Sonic

A very well used Panasonic roadie spotted out in Osaka last month. Ignore the umbrella on the bars and check out those cranks...

Yep, they be Biopace, Shimano's often maligned oval chainrings that were supposed to revolutionise cycling back in the 1980's...

Elsewhere some very vintage 105 mechs taking care of shifting...

Kickstand, rear wheel lock, umbrella. Just a typical Osaka bike.
