I admit that I know bugger all about TT other than that it stands for Top Trumps.
I just think that the shifters would mess up the aerodynamics and the forks look wrong (to my modern eyes). If my only valid objection is the lack of a couple of square inches of sticky tape, so be it.
I do like the front brake behind the fork though. I have wondered why that isn't the standard position for them on all bikes. I've also seen bikes with the rear brake mounted on the chain stay rather than the seat stay and that looks very clean.
