Must be a lot more money to make these tube frames from aluminum?

I know 4130 chrome-moly is more than Schedule 40 steel. When Slidewayz approcahed me about the Ironman project I told him I wanted a half frame done in 4130... from my experience in BMX, 4130 is light and strong. It's also expensive. Slidewayz goal was to provide a cost effective solution for broke ass stunna's. He managed to do just that, with a weight compromise for the Sched40. In the end, I couldn't be happier with the way the frame turned out... and at it's price point, a fuggin helluva deal.

I wanna see more pics of the full frame rather than the half. The half is cool but I think its kinda tacky since they have the full available.
