What metal is this frame made of?

Answer:

Hatred is the coward's revenge for being intimidated - George Bernard Shaw I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who conquers his enemies, for the hardest victory is over self- Aristotle Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves-Confucius [Here are a few by Rumi.] You think the shadow is the substanceMy wish for you is that you fall into love like a burning coal that falls into the water and keeps burningTo Love is humanTo feel Pain is humanYet to still Love despite the Pain is pure angel In the driest whitest stretch of pain's infinite desert, I lost my sanity and found this rose Let the beauty we love be what we doThere are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the groundYour task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”
It's an aluminium alloy frameIn my view aluminum is not the most desirable frame material since unless done right it tends to be stiff and uncomfortable (at least relative to carbon, titanium or a good steel frame but they would all be more expensive)Aluminium is strong, light and durable (it won't rust)Other material can be even better, but generally at higher costThere is no ideal frame material, and at a moderate price point aluminium can be a good choiceSee the links for further information on pros and cons of various bike frame materials.
