FS: GT Edge, Starter TT Bike or Paper route

Bought this as a frame off OBRA a while ago when I thought I'd start TTing more. Had a kid instead.

This is the "classic" GT "aero" frame. Quote marks are appropriate. Fits 6-6'2", maybe a bit shorter. This would be a fantastic bike for anyone thinking about getting more serious about time trailing or, for some reason, triathlons, but in their heart of hearts really knows they won't be doing *that* much, and probably shouldn't drop two grand just to fit in for that one stage race you might do.

Anodized red aluminum frame, appropriately large GT logo, style points for being retro.

Franken-Bike comes as pictured, with vision aero bars, carbon fork, 105 shifters and derailleurs, once-fancy FSA training wheels, barely used cushy Fizik Arione TT saddle, SRAM Rival cranks (172.5), zip tie, and a wobbly bottom bracket, most likely due to so some shim or other that I've misplaced. Bike has been in storage for a few years, so the whole thing definitely needs some love. Get it now and spend the winter making it race worthy. Or, you know, put it on the trainer for winter and watch your sweat slowly corrode this top tube instead of your nice bike's.

Asking $450 CL, but let's be honest. Make me a reasonable offer.
