100% the stem and forks would be long gone, maybe swap the forks for some Pace onesI know what you mean! Can be tidied up quite easily:
Fork colour clashes with the frame, but I'd swap it to fully rigid
New stem and grips
Change saddle
Change bottle cage
tidy up cable runs
Single headset spacer
remove bar ends
Swap to tanwall tyres
Hmmm... that in itself is quite a pricey list!This is why frame only suits a lot of us because fully built bikes are always such a personal thing unless catalogue spec...

Already planning what you're going to do with it then?!*
Have you gone and had a look at it yet? Or is that just too dangerous!

I think if you asked @trailwright he'd say the overall visual appearance is likened to a Donkisknob!
What’s the frame worth? I want the groupset off it
I’ve had the same question. But couldn’t find a firm value for it. I only want the chainset and shifters
I may well buy it. Let’s see how it goes as I don’t see it worth more than £800 personally.I only want the wheels/mechs/brakes

What do you think the frame is worth on it's own?
I’ve no idea as I’ve never had one.
The bits are worth £800 which leaves the frame to be worth whatever it’s worth
