For Sale: Panasonic NJS 55.5x57cm Refurbished Kawasaki Green

Hello ya'll,
I have my Panasonic frame for sale.

It has been picked up from Respray only just
yesterday, nothing mounted back. Pristine.

For those who don't remember this frame is
this same one, bought from Japan, unfortunately
dented, twice, dt and tt. Apart from that, (which is enough),
the frame is absolutely mint condition, straight, true, very very stiff.
It's made of TANGE PRESTIGE PRO, now decaled as TANGE only.

(it is next to impossible to source anything from Japanese builders, apart
from 3Rensho and Nagasawa).
The refurbishment job has been carried out by Vaz's brother, very well done
IMO, the dent on the DT has been filled (and rolled!), as the one on the tt, you can however,
still notice from an angle, if you look for it, you can recognize where it used to
be.

I need this to be clear, you can tell, you can't see any dent or anything, but
a sharp eye can tell where it was. Aside from these cosmetics mishaps the
frame holds its integrity beautifully, it is a piece of art, made of fine steel.

Extremely light, like a 753 frame, probably lighter and very, very stiff.
IT has a rear spacing of 110mm (9mm) x 100mm front (8mm).
NJS stamped on the BB shell.
Seatube is 55.5 ctt; Toptube is 57 ctc.
27.0 seatpost.
It has been painted in Kawasaki Green with metallic sparkle finish.

Now the price. I don't want to make (The) profit, honestly just need to
get rid of the frame, have too many and can't even hang it, afraid I may damage it,
it really needs to go to a good home that rides the hell out of it.
I want the all inc. costs back - £370.

*Considering I had to bring it from Japan, pay all sorts of shitty taxes, refurbish it,
and promptly putting it available for anyone to take it and set it up, it sounds
like a bargain. *

Don' get me wrong though, I know what I'm asking...
There's been at least 2 frames posted for sale today, for 100 less than this price,
specially Jonny's Chesini. But this is a frame sought after for whatever it is that
its stamp stands for, so it's got the obligatory hipster tax added already.
Feel free to take the piss, i don't give a shit.
First with cash moneys takes, no waits...I need to sell quick.
Oh..and no, the price is not negotiable. Sorry, there's always ebay.

Nice nice nice

nice colour!, good pain job

lovely & nice price : )

I would have used this wheelset, if it wasn't for the spacing.

The plan was to go fully Dura-Ace, still got the majority of the parts, those not for sale I'm afraid.

If I hadn't bought qpckt's Level I would be all over this like a fat man at an all you can eat BBQ hut...

Sounds like a great deal given that a brand new Panasonic frame is almost twice the price, not accounting for taxes and shipping from Japan.

Exactry.

(wacist)^

I would really prefer who's ever interested, to come and see it personally.
I rather not ship it.

Saw it in the flesh last night... and very nice indeed with nice paint work by Mario! Good price...

I am mighty tempted but given I am a bit taller than 6 foot, could be a bit small.

Nice, very nice!

That is one sexy frame, good luck with the sale!

I'm 6"2'.
Short legs though, thus the 55.5 being perfect for good standover height.
The 57cm TT is perfect with a 120mm stem, in my case.

noice.
not a bad price at all.
wish i was a few inches shorter..

reminds me of this build

Ooooh...squirt squirt..!!!
F**ck i just bought a dishwasher for that money...oh maaaan..

This is a fucking steal. Someone buy it.

Does it barspin?

If measures were 57 x 55.5 ...

hmmm, not bad

Very, very nice. Someone is going to get an early Christmas present.

I see rive gauche is here ;)

i'm still interested!!!

nice frame man!!! was it fit you? or a bit too small?

If the dimensions were the other way around (as varinho suggests) this would temptingly close to my size. Luckily it's clearly too small, lovely as it is.
