M. Chandler, I've seen this sticker on an eighties AD Ultima SL. I believe it says "Super Lightweight" in the upper left corner. The AD was Smoked chrome and had the Campy drilled dropouts. I was told that the walls were 1 mm thinner than standard 531. Might be true since the seatpost diameter was 27.4. BTW, it is still available and NOS from a bike shop in upstate NY-for all those AD fans. If I can remember, it was a 59 c-t. Any AD nuts out there? There might even be a Burgundy Ultima as well.
