I scored this off cl,it is a rare bike that i can't find any info on,it kind of looks like the super rare 79 or 80 non loop tail TW that were never sold to the public.It has JMC bars that are 26 wide and at least 1/2 inch taller than standard bars or AP bars,7b wheels.The decals say Ultralite bmx on the side of the bike and UL on the head tube,top tube measures 19 inches.Nice Tig welds,and the serial reads 000

Ya i searched the web and can't find a thing about these bikes,i am wondering if it is a TW made by another manufacture,there frames were made by DG,this one has gussets and the only TW i could find did not,plus my drop outs are different.

looks like a vector

vintage chromoly · 2013-01-03 7:35pm

Definitely not a vector.

Looks like "DY" bars that have been cut down???
I'm sure olphart will correct me if I'm wrong.

vintage chromoly · 2013-01-03 7:36pm

Going out on a limb here......maybe it's an ultralite.

These are taller by about 1/2 inch,the older JMC bars were 26 wide uncut,these are tall.

nice, never seen one like that, very nice score.

jeffr818 · 2013-01-03 7:42pm

Awesome score

Drewbert34 · 2013-01-03 7:43pm

Aren't those bars unobtanium?...exaggerating obviously...but aren't they really hard to find and bringing matchbox 20 money?

The only info on Ultralite BMX is Bearings and cups for 3 piece cranks bitd.This might be a prototype,the serial is 000,can't find an Ultralite bmx bike anyplace on the internet.It looks like a 79 or 80 TW like Denny Davidow raced but with CW style drop outs and Front Gusset,gusset in between the down tubes and a gusset behind the bottom bracket on the chain stays.Forks kind of look like Torker or CW.

STARTING THIS YEAR.

king stinger · 2013-01-03 8:53pm

I just measured the bars again,the rise is 9 inches,must be pretty rare i cant find any sold here or in the reference section here,thornton sold a pair of standard bars in the beta that were 8 inch rise and 26 uncut,so maybe these are the older Pro bars?

electrongeek · 2013-01-03 8:56pm

Come on!! Isn't it obvious!? It's a Kuw...

Nevermind. Nice pick up Jeff!

king stinger · 2013-01-03 8:59pm

You sure do have a knack for the unusual ones. Very cool though.

I remember the TW Davidow had...he won in 1979 with one in Hawaii at the NBA South Pacific Nationals. I have not seen a TW since the 80's!
