Is 4 lbs good for a steel frame? Should I go for aluminum of steel? (not interested on carbon since I assume it will rise the price to the clouds)

looks like I need some advice here.
That's standard BB threading. And I don't know where they got that $1000 figure from. That frame is probably worth $50.
