It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

For that kind of money, I can buy the tools required to make my own made-to-measure frame, the DIY RETUL used for finding my perfect-fit, the tubing & pieces, etc, & have the most bespoke bike possible for me to have, AND have the tools to build other stuff, too..
Wouldn't be titanium, but if I wanted to do Ti, then the tubing's a couple of dollars per inch, & it has to be DC TIG welded, ttbomk, instead of brazed, to it'd be a steeper learning-curve, but still possible..
Why the hell would anybody want a road bike, is the real question..

I mean I want a road bike. I want to commute but at a fraction of the cost and with some exercise while I'm at it.
That said for this price I'd expect a sick ebike tbh lol
You make some good points, though I'm not sure that most people riding around even know what TIG and MIG are, let alone how they're different. Armed with this knowledge and presumably fabrication experience, it certainly would be cheaper for you to make your own frame from scratch.
This wouldn't be the case for a person that's never used a welder before or thought about the foot cost of steel tube. Which is where this company - or any company, really - is making their money.
