Hello, LFGSS. Long time no speak...
I purchased this Time Pulse on a complete whim, whilst I was on Facebook marketplace at the start of the 2020 lockdown. I've ridden it everyday since.
The bike was essentially NOS, it was (as you'd expect) immaculate. It's still in fantastic shape, but obviously no longer NOS.
Gotta say, I find this bike functional. It's carbon, lugged, dripping in Campagnolo, but it just doesn't 'do' anything for me. As a tool, I cannot fault it. I was thinking possibly of adding some all black wheels and gumwalls, and see how I feel then.
I think this is maybe because I don't really know that much about the Time brand. I understand they are French and create tour worthy bikes, but there's not that much info on the net, other than it being a 2009 bike.
I have just changed the pedals, saddle, seatpost, handlebars and bar tape. Oh, and tyres.
I still have my colnago, which I have stripped for parts and I plan to build again, this time with all the drool worth parts I wanted as a teenager + etap (maybe, possibly, probably)

Front braking surface is fine, looks super concave but it's darker with dirt.
Clearance is actually pretty good! Running on 23c, could squeeze 25.
