Since the ultralevers are long pull only (looking to use mechanical disc brakes) was wondering what my options are. Anyone got any options, Kooka?

Consider using brake levers designed for cyclocross bikes. These often have a longer pull and can work well with mechanical disc brakes.

Depends what do you consider good looking? Some choices here, but Paul or Box might be nice enough?
