Bear in mind that Ikea is a Swedish company, where the 'race bike image' is much less common, and is pretty irrelevant to their target market for this bicycle. The bicycle looks like 90% of the ones you'd find in Scandinavia, and is intended for daily use commuting, shopping, socialising and so on.

They give the weight as 16kg, which I think is fairly light for a bicycle of this type. Most people would add the basket and rear rack though.
