Clark Kent Titanium TT

The frame was welded sometime in the early 90's by master builder Ivo Vinklarek who worked for the now defunct Clark Kent Bicycles based in Denver, CO. These guys made Alexi Grewal's iconic AX-1 and many ti bikes for LeMond. The 3Al/2.5V titanium tubes are joined by some of the most gorgeous welds I've ever seen. It has a really steep seat tube angle and 650c wheels as it was an early foray into a dedicated tt/tri bike. I got this bike for free from a friend, put some money into fixing it, rode it for awhile and realized it was way too weird for me. I sold it for cheap hoping someone else would enjoy it. Posting because I was feeling nostalgic about old bikes today.
