Pacific Bikes in SF is still around (I work there as a Mechanic/Sales/Whatever needs to get done guy). Mostly we deal with road/tri/mtn stuff. Lots of carbon, nothing vintage, unless you count the owners Cinelli that hangs out upstairs. I always get made fun of at work as my bikes are generally the antithesis of what we sell. I always get a little awkward selling a Cervelo, Scott, Look, etc. road bike and the customer asks me what I ride and I happen to be on my 3 speed that day. Never expected my place of employment to show up on CR :)
