1. 57lb is very heavy, even if you dont lift it. Riding it will be harder.
2. Expect the battery or the BMS to break after short use. Then you end up with a 57lb bike without electricity and it's very hard to ride a heavy bike. Expect no support from manufacturer. Expect very hard to find "plug and play" replacement parts unless you know how to build your own e-bike.
Buy it at your own risk.

because it's not $1500
What's the problem? Is it because steel is relatively heavy?
Yes, aluminum is lighter and you'd get a longer range due to the lighter weight, however steel is much more durable.

Using aluminum properly in bicycles has proven itself for decades.
I've probably put more miles on that one bike then you will ride in your entire lifetime.
So your aluminum bike 'broke in half' and you imply that it will kill you. Its amazing you survived! Got a steel handlebar on your steel bike? Steel seat post? Steel cranks? Steel rims? Maybe you better never get on a bike again because surely that inevitable aluminum component that is on it is going to be the death of you!
Also watch out on those ebikes. Lithium Ion batteries go up in flames...you must have heard! You'll look like a flaming dumpster fire on that steel ebike flying down the road.
I had bad milk once. I'll never drink milk ever again. Smart right?
