This bike essentially requires the same skilled labor to build as a carbon fiber bike. Its only claim to fame is that it doesn't use the $8 (guess) of steel you need to build a standard bike frame.

The rest of the components cost about $90. It's competing with Chinese bikes.

The plan has not been thought through, but it's great news bait.
