expect MTB components and frames to sell for less than the equivalent

upright bike prices to the Dark Side, where a Cro-Moly frame bike with
Deore/Tiagra level components will often sell for 2 to 3 times as much
as the MTB and road bike equivalents.
You failed to mention the toothpasty, lawn mower quality welds and
smashed-flat-&-bolted frame details. That stuff ain't free, you know.
