That front end looks far too low for your liking, I'll give it 'til the end of summer before we hear about project no.385 . 😉

Too many spacers above the stem. Pipe cutters are 8 quid from B&Q.
Marys - enough said
How BIG is the disk on the back?
Cranks look too long but that could be the rings being too small.

Which leads to what I think will be your biggest issue. Rigid, slicks, compact gearing, you're going to be spinning out on that thing.

I like the saddle though.
