    Does anyone know if the Panasonic Track 4000 was NJS certified? I tried doing some online searches but the results were slim and either led to photos on here or Panasonic electric equipment...
  2.  
    Are you racing Keirin?

    (hint: You're not)
  3.  
    all he wants to know is if it was or not, he never said he was going to race it. me personally have no idea.

    Someone must know.
  4.  
    way to be a douche octopus magic...i ask because i can get one for fairly cheap. i know that panasonic is a brand that has njs certified frames. thus, why shouldnt i find out so i can put together a nice build for cheap and maybe sell later on when i need the money.
  5.  
    do you have a pic?
  7.  
    no pic. waiting for the guy to get back to me...all that's in the listing is panasonic track 4000 then some components listed which i know for certain aren't njs but he does mention that it is tange tubing...
  8.  
    from my knowledge from those njs frames, it should say njs on the bottom of the BB shell

    To my knowledge, the panasonic 4000 was produced for american markets and is therefor unlikely to be njs.
  10.  
    alright. i found a guy on here that has one and PM'ed him to see if he knows anything...thanks for the help.
  11.  
    ya check the bb shell and if it dosent have it then its not njs. but to make sure look all around the frame

    why is that being a douche. Octo-Magic is right, why does it matter if its NJS? ask yourself: does said frames classification as njs/not njs affect your desire to buy it?
    if it does is that stupid stamp really worth it?

    are NJS parts generally good quality and nice looking? yes.

    does anyone look at the underside of your BB, pat you on the back and say, "man you are so cool, you've got some Neat Japanese Shit."? i hope not.

    it kind of means of him being a dick, all the guy is asking is if the frame is njs or not, he doesnt say anywhere hes going to race keirin, or care if it is njs or not. Just simply asking if anyone has any info on if it could be njs or not

    Clearly he cares whether its njs or not, thats the whole point of the thread. I'm not going to say anything about the relevance of the stamp but lets not pretend that this is not what the thread is about...

    Doesn't the NJS certification have absolutely no bearing on quality?

    I wouldn't say that. The NJS certification is a standardization method so all riders are on equal ground equipment wise. At the same time you'd be really hard pressed to find an NJS certified component that wasn't of relatively high quality. Especially in the frames. It takes quite a bit to become an NJS certified framebuilder so if your frame has the little stamp on it you can be assured it was hand made by a master. That's certainly speaking to it's quality.

    Then again
