As far as the frame goes, I think unless you can do the following don't put another TT frame on the market:
1. Aero shaped tubes. i.e. blunt leading edge and sharp trailing edge.
2. no less than 2.5:1 tubes, no wider than 30mm on downtube or seattube.
3. Aero seat stays
The new C6.0 has a bulge. The truth will have aero shaped tubes, but the drawing is for the prototype in titanium and hence will have an ovalised tube. They will have aero stays instead of what's shown in the drawing.
