It was a '95 or '96 Pacific Vector. Mostly a pretty well put together bike. The chainrings are all chipped and cracked (have been for years), but the frame and wheels seem to be quite sturdy. I'm trying to get it fixed up so my wife can use it. Her old bike had 24" wheels and was just WAY too small for rides of any distance. I put Schwalbe Kojaks on it and I'm hoping it will roll a little easier now. No way it'll ever roll like my Sirrus.

I got a 2001 Specialized Sirrus Comp off eBay for about $200 (local, so I save the shipping too). It's a hybrid bike: basically a road bike with flat bars and a few extra braze-ons. Most people around here seem to hate hybrids, but I love mine.
