The geo is similar, so handling is close. Spooky is lighter and a bit stiffer, but the Tsunami was also an awesome frame. I like the andonized frame of the Spooky, and visually the external butting is cool. II bought Spooky because they were on sale at the time. However, $600 for the Tsunami with custom geo is a good deal IMO.

Good to hear. I knew the Tsunamis were a great deal, but I didn't realize they were that inexpensive - especially for custom geometry. Thanks for the feedback!

Not sure where is pricing is now but they will still be cheaper than most comparable non custom made in Asia brands. For a race bike it's a no-brainer IMO.

A frame from the good old days!
I 'd suggest black saddle and tires.

They are $750 last time I checked.
Pro Lite Cuneo frame (size 56.6: 1237g). Pro Lite Bracciano wheels, campa centaur/athena mix, china fork and seatpost, stripped carbon flite saddle, planet x stem and handlebars. Look Keo classic pedals now on. Tires are michelin pro4 25mm with challenge latex tubes (feels like floating). Weight tba. Colours are telemagenta and graphite grey.

Horse that is superb. Apart from the tyres, but I'm sure you already know about that.
