whenever I see a lo-pro like that all I can think is "ooh my poor back" That's a really lovely example though, Moser-tastic.

That used to be a favourite set-up with TTers. It always looked like a handling nightmare to me though I never rode one.

definitely yes, something very pleasing about a large-flanged hub like that

I had other things to do and think about in the 80s!
Arrange your shoulder pads, roll the sleeves up on your jackets, put your woodchip wallpaper up?

I used to TT on a LoPro in the '80s - and I had a Capri LOL 
700c rear disc on a tub and a 650c Spin trispoke (lovely noise) at the front with an extended seatpost (not a faring!!!), 653 tubing, Zoom Ti seat pin reversed, full Dura-Ace and lots of bar tape - used to do quite a lot of 50s and needed something to grip hold of with my big mitts!
