For ten bucks, yeah, that's a good deal. Put it up on eBay and you might be able to get the same amount for it.

However, it is far from a good bike.

Any word on this bike**********?

I purchased this bike in the early 90’s. Rode it all over and I still have it in my 40’s. Same exact bike you described. Every day I try to find out what his bike is because I want to fix it up better than it is and give it to my son. I don’t even know if it’s worth anything so I’m wondering if you found out any information on this bike that you purchased for $10? Thank you

Since the original poster was last on here 16 years ago, i doubt he still is around

It wont hurt anything to restore it for your son. IT will never fetch the money a Hutch Trickstar or a Supergoose will, but for a beater or neighborhood terrorizer, should still be fine to this day

My recollection is that Pacific was the house brand for a big box store (WalMart, I think it was). It won't have much value for resale, but can probably be massaged into a usable machine for recreational purposes.

Yeah I honestly have no clue where my parents bought it back in the day. But I can definitely say it’s served it’s purpose for what I need it for and it’s a very super light bike that I used to do crazy tricks on. I’m currently on vacation but when I get back over the weekend I’ll see if I can throw up some pictures.
