Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

So, bought it from a private party for 70.00. Steel frame, butted, black with red stickers, Shimano RX 100 gearing (7 back/2 front), has stickers on it that say "Direct Drive CRMO tubing". Also has Wolber wheels and a Sakae headset. Drop shifters, naturally.

I'm guessing this is a late 80s - early 90s model. It's pretty cool looking and I think I got a deal. Can anybody enlighten me on this bike?

flat black, "Specialized" on the top tube in their logo lettering; kind of blocky, almost egyptian looking lettering in "Sirrus" on the downtube? if so, it's a 1991.
