Title: This is coming along nicely too!
Post by: Swivel on January 07, 2008, 04:52 PM
I know i'm gonna get ribbed that its a Burner, but I always thought the Ultra's were cool being black/gold with decent parts on it like Sugino/Suntour/Araya etc.. this came back from the powders a few days ago and i've added the decals and its mint, super mint... very happy with it. Rob (rarman) see it yesterday and thought it looked stunning, photos really don't do it justice. Picked it up on the bay for £123 from Tunbridge Wells and it was a rust bucket but the parts spoke for themselves. Just getting my crank arms (tioga's and sugino for this) rechromed right now to finish this off. It will be a part minty / part survivor build with the araya's left as shiny sides from brake wear... still hunting for the correct seat for it though  :(

I hope you like it... will post up some more piccy's when its ready!

Bars are actually incorrect, purchased them off the bay about a month ago, they are NOS Alloy Race Inc bars, if anyone wants them for what I paid for them i.e. £32 posted, you're welcome to them as they are beautiful bars but just not right for this build...  ;)
