I really like my Tsunamis. I have two, here is the other one:



Shortly after ordering the second one with racier geometry, I had a bit of a buyer's remorse because my original one is perfectly fine and frankly fits me better which is why I tried selling the red one. Anyways, mine are plenty stiff (I have never noticed any flex), the handling is great (56-58 mm trail on my bikes), and they ride well with the right tire/pressure combination. The frames are not very light (about 1,500 g for mine, which are essentially 56 cm frames), but neither am I so the mass hasn't bothered me.

As for the P6 Hiflex seatpost, it seems to mute the bigger bumps pretty well. Other than that, I can't say I notice a huge difference between it and the Ritchey aluminum seastpost on my other one. As you can see, I don't have a whole lot of seatpost showing so maybe the difference would have been a bit more dramatic if more of it was exposed.

hi there,

i just want to show you really nice bike i put the hands on, this will be for my girlfriend.

This bike is from around 1999, full alu eaton elite tubing and a kinesis alu fork with some heavy rigida rim, the bike is heavy but the look is just amazing.
This bike is also in exellent condition. Sorry for the saddle angle, it was just for the picture but i have missed the upper nose before seing the pictures.
