Time trialists have always been fashion victims. That's from, I think, late 80s or early 90s. You'd get laughed at riding it now.

It'd be interesting to see it side by side with a regular road bike. Looks stupid fo sure but I wouldn't be surprised if the riding positions were both the same. I.e. Pedals to seat to bars.

Nevertheless, you'd look like a plum riding it.

That front end must be really unstable with the top and down tubes being so close , there's no bracing. Terrible design.

If you look at the contact points rather than the top tube you'll see that the rider position is about what a normal TT bike would give you :rolleyes:

Hu? why? I've been riding bikes with the top tube & down tube butted into each other for years without any problems what so ever.

Just pretty standard lay out for small frames - I've got a 20.5 inch frame in the garage with the top and down tube lugs almost touching.
