1994 Parkpre Sceptor Comp Frankenstein (marmite)

[Siblackpool]

Well to start I came across a Parkpre Sceptor Comp frame/seatpost on Ebay and it was local pickup only. Bonus thing was it was only a few miles away. After being the only bidder I got it for a great price. Even better thing was the seller works near me and dropped it off! I was unsure what route to take as I needed a commutor bike as I have a few other bikes but all are a little naff on the road. I am not a fan of "road or Hybrid" bikes as a rule. I build this with mainly new parts. Now before I get shouted at about the forks,, I 100% know they are not Pace. However I bought them blind. All the other forks I have are disc only, and wanting to use V's these will do the job for now.
Comments welcome good and bad, and also any ideas on improvments!

Haha, it will be toned down with the new forks,, I promise!

Needs forks with a longer axle to crown length. The head angle is so steep it will ruin the handling.

Ok, so I have changed the forks, but the stem on the frame is huge. This forks have a 215 stem and still only room for a few spacers.
