The Crosscheck is a great frame, had mine since 2007 and it does exactly what it is intended to do, brilliantly. Mine has mainly been used as a fixed gear winter training bike and commuter, but with a few small changes, it transforms into the ideal bike for the occasional touring holidays and off road rides, and works perfectly for this purpose. If you want a one frame suits all kind of machine, the Crosscheck has to be one of the best options.
There's no rack mounts on the Pacer, though there are ways round this, I think the Crosscheck is better set up for touring, wheelbase, clearance etc. you don't want to be kicking your paniers with each pedal stroke.
