Latest elevated chainstay project finished.

[Retro_Roy]

hi all
while looking at a bike listed on local craigdlist i spyed this one laying under a stair landing. asked if it was for sale. it belonged to another guy living in the place. he came out and i asked if he was interested in selling it. he said sure. and for cheap too. as you can see it was covered in black tape and not very visible. but it was an elevated chainstay. all i need to see. actually the components on it were all LX with a tange chromoly fork. so i knew it wasn't a total junker.
i had a decent set of LX shifter/brake levers kicking around. cleaned it up and here it is. but i haven't been able to find any info on it anywhere. has anyone ever seen one before? own one? know anything about it? it is a Suzico Bullet.
any comments or info appreciated.

Looks really tidy. Bet you had a job cleaning all the sticky tape off..... :?

Not a brand I am familiar with but the paint job and groupset say quality

excellent work. But the seat is not level?

hi
took a few hours and lots of WD-40 to get all that tape and tape glue off.
as for the seat angle.........oops!!! what can i say. was in a hurry to snap a few shots. just finished it and yarded it out of the basement. sits a bit more level now.
what do you think, should i get rid of that plastic disc in the back wheel? personally i think they look bad.

It must have been lovely to see the paint underneath looking so good, although i can only think of one reason why someone would go to the effort to put all that tape around here in the first place
