Doesn't look like an ultra-6 in the pic.

I salute your eyesight.

Elderly duddy-fuddy here.

Did not intend to ID gear block as a Maeda. Mentioned only as example of six in the space of five. Perhaps you with your better vision will recognise a specific maker...

Same R on that one. Same elements too.

More info: CC Bicycle Gallery: RaySport Info

"These are essentially a quite nice Cinelli Super Corsa copy from Mexico from about 1975, but with a tighter wheelbase, and vertical Campy rear dropouts. Very responsive but comfortable frames (steel is real!), no eyelets on the dropouts, not for wide tires, fenders, or 'touring.'"
beat me to it! I was fiddling for the name and a full day passed before I remembered it. These frames had some "St Louis connection" didn't they? Read up and fixed that!

Unbelievably rare.

Wowza! I hope you're right as that would keep us in grease, cables and gojo for a while.

Thanks for the info folks. I'll make sure to post more pictures after it's been fully cleaned and riding.
