Dibs Athena rd if still available. Sending PM shortly

Aware of the possibility of course, and I'll be keeping an eye out for any indication of the damage worsening (creaking sounds, increased bending etc.), but I'm not that worried of the frame suddenly snapping with fatal impaling and OTB-launching consequences.

Good spot ed. The downtube shows a frontal impact just below the headtube lug. ooof.
Now that you mention it, I only checked the top tube and headtube for damage. There's a partially transparent sticker on the DT which might mess up the perspective, but I'll definitely check the DT when I get the chance and report back.
Frameset was about £80 posted so not a big loss financially, but it would be a bummer if it turns out to be unsafe to ride.
Checked the frame and the down tube is clearly bent. I guess I'll ride it 'til it dies. A sad day.

Your front end is fucked, get it checked out before you ride further.
There's no dents on the tubing or compression damage on the frame and the fork legs are true and straight. Rides fine and looks nice, so no problems here.

My cx street beater. Had proper knobbly tyres on it during winter for snow riding, but as it turned out, there was snow only for like a week here in southern Finland.

Testing the new setup of my lopo steed:
Rear is clincher from a road Shamal laced to a Record hub. Front is tubular 650c.
I borrowed the bars (ITM Citta di Bassano) from vanttera, but they're stupid deep and a pain to ride on the street. Looks swag tho. Then I tested 3TTT Moscows, which felt really nice. Gotta get me one of those.

I don't think he said it's a c record, he just said record which it is.
Well, I didn't say it's C-Record either.
Anyhoo, glws

Nice stuff. I'd say the headset is Super Record instead of Record judging by the drilled top head race and locknut design.
Not exactly like Arias, but I've got these wheels with similar Fir rims for sale:
