That Ritchie is not a $40 headset, more like $10. Also, a lot of those specs are wrong. Take it from someone who owns three BD bikes. That doesn't mean they are terrible bikes, just pretty average and nothing special. When you get the bike, put it together propoerly, then get on it and ride, and stop obssessing about specs and weight.
