As the title sugests I'm building up a TT bike and trying to keep it as 90s as possible whilst also on a very tight budget. I used the bike for a while in a terrible set up and now im trying to give it the build it deserves. For a while it was my only working bike so unfortunately I used it to commute rain or shine for a while so it's a bit rough round the edges.The bike is mostly built up but not set up and I think i'm gonna need to put on some bar end shifters as the STIs on the bull horns doesnt look, feel or work right. Hopefull I can get it looking good.
So here's some photos with various wheel combos and the chainset I failed to put on:

And here's the parts list:
Frame + fork: Ambrosio Stelvio carbon (Carbon tubes bonded to aluminium lugs with nice wishbone stays)
Groupset: Shimano 600 tricolore
Stem + bars: Profile Design integrated
Wheels: Various (Aerospoke, Rev-X, 53mm spinergy)
Saddle: Selle Italia Flite Ti
Pedals: SPD (I know they look horrific and don't go at all but I only have SPD shoes apologies, I'm looking for some period Looks and road shoes)
Chainset: Shimano 600 tricolore (I bought an octalink FSA Team issue carbon crankset but I can't get the old BB out so i'm stuck with square taper)
Seatpost: Nasty kalloy one but only 25mm seatpost I could find quickly
