Those dont really match up. So while you might like the aesthetics of that frame, it isnt the right one for you.
I appreciate the help, but I would like to point out that most TT and Triathlon bikes are set up with pretty tight geometry and a lot of times sizing down to 650c wheels(which is stupid IMO) for instance this is a tri specific frame and it has almost the same geo so I don't think the frame will go against what I am used to riding.

I actually found a lot to further my point:
