If Steel is real, then why isn't it on the Periodic Table? Aluminum is.

Steel dents, too. If you take care of your bike it will last. If not, it wont.

Any nice bike is a candidate to be stolen.

17 lbs for a 57cm. Handled the city just fine. No dents. It may be possible to find a similar setup for around $1,000 or less on the used market.
