Drove about 5 hours to Vancouver BC after 2 months of coordinating with the buyer (he had to drive 5+ hours to Vancouver as well) to get this Pacer. Replaced the stem and bars with some decent Ritchey components that I found used, as well as the seatpost with a Thompson that I snagged for $40. Also swapped out the brakes with a set of Ultegra 6800 caliper brakes that I found at a bike co-op (pricey but worth). Threw on my Brooks as well. Everything else is 90s Campagnolo Veloce, that functions pretty well after replacing cables + housing. The intention was to build up a semi-fast bike for commuting that could handle rain. Really fun bike! Took it on a semi-rainy century yesterday that had a good gravel stretch and everything held together quite well. Hopefully the first of many adventures on this rig
