I like it apart from the pedals and straps. And the rims.

And the stem. And the handlebars. And the tyre.

Hope that's not a kalloy seatpost and those straps are awful.
But I see a lot of potential.

edit:
That's an athena seatpost.
But throw that saddle in the bin.

Basically the frame is a nice colour.

Therefore, only frame should have been posted. : )

Why is Athena OK, but the Kalloy copy of C-Record not? It's either a good design or it isn't*, and Kalloy making it in more sizes and colours at a quarter of the price doesn't change that.

*Hint: It's a good design. And I think it is a Kalloy, the description says "Athena on the way", and that post doesn't look like the inferior Athena one.

I also like the green tyres with the frame colour. The more I look the more I think the ugliest thing is the rims.

Looks a lot like kalloy to me. I use one, it looks shit, and so does that.

Terrible cable routing, and can someone please explain how the front brake arm is not going to hit the downtube when making a sharp left?

maybe the bars hit the toptube before the caliper arm?

lol
the cable routing is on purpose, it's a TT bike, and wouldn't have made sharp turns

can't get enough of this

That's lovely

these Lotto Ridley Heliums are nice (the Noah's just look a bit weird in this colourway):

I think he has a point. TT bikes do have to get round the occasional mini roundabout!

then simply get an allen key, loosen stem bolt, raise bars

lol

tbh, I fail to see how the brake levers would hit the tt if turned , given the length of bars

can't tell how unserious you are, but the line you made in the photo should be perpendicular to steering axis, not extension of tt, if you wanted that bit to make sense.

forks are the nuts though (imo) for the era, and no hole in the front, only rear

ahh, not unserious, the line was meant to show how far below the tt the brake calipers drop
