Beside a nice and good quality aluminum frame, the parts used on this bike is not much diffent from those sold at the discount stores like Walmart's.

And at 3.5x the price of a Walmart bike, no thanks!

Defintely a notch above anything you'd get for 1/3rd the price, the $80 Walmart bikes don't even have branded parts, though Walmart's most expensive MTB are roughly the same quality for... wait for it... roughly the same price.
This might make for a cheapskate's XC trainer, more than enough for light trails letalone paved roads, but ultimately not an all-in-one mountain bike you'd want to use where people normally ride $500+ bikes.
