Are they saying their adjustable gear mechanism accounts for $2000 of the price?
Look again: the "single speed" includes the gearing:
"The gear shifter was removed however gears can be changed manually pulling or pushing the pulley up or down when the bike is stationary."
You're paying $2000 to not have to stop and change gears manually, or saving $2K by doing without the gear shifter, which ever way you wish to look at it. I almost think the price is a typo.
