Pearly goodness. That sloping fork with a center pull is pretty cool.

Univegas tended to perform quite well compared to their equivalently priced competitors back in the day. IIRC, they used to spec slightly thicker gauge downtubes and chainstays, and they really would get up and go if you stomped on them. They'd cheap out a bit on BB, pedals, and other stuff like that though. I sold a lot of them at my after school LBS job.
