Walmart bikes = Chariot of choice for dropouts.

Even the homeless aren't that stupid. They'll go dig a rusted Letour "Classic" out of a garbage dump before they are seen riding a shiny new Walmart bike.

It's hard enough for some people to make the switch from auto to bike only to have this avalanche of "$accessories$" thrown upon them. Why the h*ll should new cyclists be made to feel inferior because they are without a helmet, kit, titanium frame..etc. That pretty much ruins the whole transition for some people. Much less BS and hassle to just drive the car.

They are out cruising on a bike. The most powerful statement one can make in this day -n- age.
