Tsunami Bikes

Aka Seaboard, Abeya, Pursuit, Weapon. Steel and alloy frames from AliExpress. An alternative to Spa / Surly / Brother etc.

For those who fancy building a sensible touring/gravel/commuter bike, but balk at paying £500 for a new frameset.

Anybody got one?

I had some correspondence with a guy called Wei at Pursuitbicycle about doing a custom version of the Tsunami gravel biek https://www.abeyabicycle.com/gravel-frame.html
During the correspondence he used email addresses from Seaboard, Abeya, and Pursuit.
Price on a custom geo bare 4130 frame was $360 + shipping there were quite a few limitations/design rules so I ended up going with Marino instead.
Communications were good and he seemed like a decent guy
I think Abeya China Trading Company is the umbrella company for all these brand names.

I built one for my partner. It's fairly well made and it's not too heavy. The geometry it's not exactly how advertised but it was still ok just I higher head tube. The one I have is the new version of cx01. It's a good option for someone that want an all city super professional at 1/4 of the price

Has anyone had any experience with Tsunami fixie/single speed frames?

No experience, but their weapon looks pretty nice as does the Tracklocross frameset.

This has come up before I think. I believe they are/were popular in HK/SE Asia. Have a Google.

Thanks, I have Googled them and they seem okay. Only want it for a hack bike and they are cheap enough so I bought one. I will post what I think when i receive it.
