It depends on the speed gone, the kind of bike ridden, and the weight of the person riding. However, on average, approximately 36 calories per mile are burned. Therefore, about 560 calories would be burned.
If the bicycles are otherwise comparable, you'll burn the same amount of calories. If the steel bike is heavier, you'll burn a few more calories on that one.

You are always moving, watching and shifting your weight and your bike. I am not sure of the calories burned but have heard between 25 and 36 calories burned for 15 minutes of riding or 102 calories burned for an hour of riding.
Not by itself. In combination with a controlled diet, yes. Riding an exercise bike hard enough and long enough will help you burn some calories, but if you're still eating more calories than you're using up you won't slim down.
