You see, I remember looking at the 1986 Panasonic model year brochure back in the day and even though this wasn&#8217;t the top dog (Team Europe) within the line, it was far and away THE bike I wanted.\u00a0 It is also the bicycle that prompted my quest for more Panasonic information&#8230; and turning up fairly empty-handed, I guess you could say it also led to the creation of this web site.<\/p>\n<p>So I wanted one of these for many years&#8230; since 1986 to be exact!\u00a0 The only problem was that I had never actually seen one anywhere other than in the bike shop catalog back in the day.\u00a0 I have been watching ebay and other sites for quite some time and never saw one for sale. I sort of figured that perhaps this bike was a bit of a <em>unicorn<\/em> within the Panasonic line. You see pictures but can&#8217;t be sure they actually exist.<\/p>\n<p>Well, during mid May of 2008 the unicorn bike became a reality. I spotted one on ebay and was determined to own it as long as the price didn&#8217;t go up to insane levels. As luck may have it, I won the auction and the bike is now sitting over my left shoulder. I spent several evenings going through everything in order to get it &#8220;museum clean&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>It turns out that I had in fact purchased the bike from the original owner.\u00a0 The bike was originally purchased from a now defunct Schwinn\/Panasonic dealer in East Liberty, Pennsylvania called The Bike Barn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Team America was the 2nd model from the top after the Team Europe model.\u00a0 So what was the Team America?
