Without any doubt Niels Albert would still race satisfactory results on it, but I doubt anyone on here is browsing Retrobike looking for bicycles to be up front in serious competition.
Sorry if I gave the wrong impression, I'm not knocking your frame at all, it would make a classy and rare retro ride. I was referring to Mike's post that this frame should be built up and raced.
No problem. Nor I or my bike felt offended Even the fastest space age carbon rig riding guy at the starting line realizes he is the loser when seeing this bike lining up next to him. Matter of style
