I’m not agreeing with you. “Gas pipe” bikes are things like Schwinn Varsity. Heavy cheaply made steel bikes. They don’t have a lot of attention to detail. If the bike doesn’t have an integrated hanger, it’s much more likely to be made of thick high tensile steel. This one is more refined than that.
