My ultimate project: restoring a 1991 Panasonic PR6000 team bike

Short cage xt instead of the long cage one. Makes it 1 cm closer to catalog-spec. 😁

Always nice to see updates of this project. :)

Thanks, @vp1337 . I'm moving slowly on this one but that's because I want to keep the joy of having it finished for the best moment possible. 😉

Bad news. Seems the repro decals have become unusable. When pealing off the decal from the backing paper, the adhesive sticks to the backing paper.

That's a shame @WimVDD, Bicals maybe able to help https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/3377­57/

Thanks, @SideshowBob but I'm first going to talk to the guys that made these. They're here in Ghent so will visit them tomorrow. Hope they're willing to replace them for free (I paid 120 € for design and print...). In the end they didn't tell me the adhesive had an expiry date...

Good news: they want to replace them for free. It seems they just cut the letters too deep.

Nothing more to show at this moment but some of the parts I was still after (and found). Still needed: bar tape. And a resprayed frameset.
