It looks like it's got a clear coat on the outside. I'm going to treat it with frame saver or lanolin oil https://www.bunnings.com.au/wd-40-specialist-300g-rust-prevention-lanolin-lubricant_p0019345 before I build it.

I've also ordered some frame saver stickers to prevent it from being rubbed off.

Until then, it's staying safely on the couch!

I've personally saw a Tsunami Seaboard (raw version) last 2019 and I have to say I really wanted to buy it. The only reasons that stopped me was they didn't have my size and I was in the middle of a business trip. Although I have to say I wasn't privy with the components as I wanted to convert it to an SS.

I've been eyeing this on off for a while. I think it looks awesome! Had to sell another bike but super excited to finally put this one together.

So far I've ordered / got:
- The frame obviously (on its way)
- Elite ENT clincher wheels (on their way)
- 105 mini group (SS) (on its way)
- Generic carbon saddle (already in my shed)
- 40cm Aluminium bars (already in my shed)

I'm aiming for a sub-8kg build. My current estimate is at just under 8kg so we'll see once all the parts start to arrive and I realise I've left off a few bits and pieces.

Hey guys,

Is there a difference between each of these 3 products? They all have the same pictures but very different prices.

I'm looking at these for a basic road bike build I'm working on. Has anyone else bought them? Are they any good?

Cheers!
