It is just a generic road frame- no better or worse than all the other generic road frames sold by Trek, Specialized, Nashbar, etc. So long as the size, geometry and price are right for you, buy it.

In 1999 I purchased a Schwinn Circuit. I also looked at the Peloton in Reynolds 853. Different paint than the Circuit but the steel frames were identical. Cycletourist is right, it is a common 853 frame made in the Far East somewhere. But, mine has been very durable and the bike built with good components is as light as similar price range aluminum bikes. Probabaly worth around $100 or so if the frame is in perfect shape.
