Are those steel pedals? Damn. But, it's guaranteed to still be over priced. I seen a bike at the department store the other day that had a reasonably welded aluminum frame and Shimano Tourney drivetrain, cranks and v-brakes,some type of grip-shift, Kenda tires and a rear rack. Now, I don't know where Tourney sits in the Shimano lineup but it's high enough that it actually has a name. The bike cost $140. My car probably weighs less but again - components with a real name on them beats this thing hands down.
