Looks like GMC has gotten into the bike game.

Jeep did pretty well with their mountain bikes. And Ferrari, Porsche, Spyker, Cadillac and BMW have all done the road bike thing as well. Now we find GMC doing...both. Perhaps wanting to emphasize their off-road ruggedness with a smooth on-road ride, the 7 GMC bicycles from Kent (the manufacturer of the Cadillac bikes) cover both mountain and street. Buyers so inclined can choose from the Topkick, Denali, Yukon, Yukon XL and Envoy. Prices range from the $180 everyday Denalis through the $400 Yukon XL race bike. Knowing GMC as a truck-only company, the race bike seems a bit odd, to say the least.

A real race bike cost $4,000 - $10,000+ , these $180-$400 knock offs are your everyday Walmart and Toys R us cheap american crap. Cheap american company offers cheap bikes = no surprise !!!

Exactly right. It's insulting to see such a p.o.s. marketed as a 'race bike' with things you'll NEVER see on a real race bike such as a kickstand, chainring guards and flat pedals.

The sad fact is that piece of garbage is made in China (like everything else these days) and is designed to be in the garbage pile in time for next Christmas. What a fitting testament to GM.
