A frined has offered me a Planet X time trial bike which he is selling due to injury. Everything about the bike is good apart from the head down riding position, as I have no intention of ever riding at this sort of level, and I would prefer to be a little more upright to see what is ahead of me. Is it possible to change the geometry of these bikes without getting into major costs and hassles.

I would say , no

You could use a different stem but generally speaking TT frames have quite steep angles and are not really suitable for normal road riding.

Having said that you could ride it in reverse if your into your extreme dowhill , but you woulndt be able to see where your going which would make it that bit more exciting

Aero Time trial bikes have steep angles and a short wheelbase and don't corner or ride that well........ It depends on how "hardcore" it is. Have you got the model name?
