This type of thing so worries me. I'm not worried about folks like us that have at least core maintenance/repair skills and know enough to know what to check. But, we are not the target market. People with no knowledge and no core maintenance repair skills are the market. In other words, those who have no choice but to blindly trust/believe the bicycle is at least safe. We all know that trust is very likely misplaced. The components might meet a bare minimum standard for safety but even that is a "might". Once you throw in some minimum wage, unskilled monkey who is taking time away from cleaning the toilets performing end assembly with a crescent wrench and pair of pliers you have an item that is simply not safe.
