Back in my day, if you wanted an entry level aluminum fixed gear, you were either spending around $400 for a frameset alone, or you were getting a $200 VISP from Aliexpress that was a gamble whether it even showed up to your door within six months. Now there's the Tsunami SNM100, complete with double-butted 6061 aluminum, smooth welds, and a geometry that makes sense. Let's see how good cheap bikes are getting in this fixed gear bike check.

Thanks to @uncle_tinsel from Myanmar (bike built in Malaysia) for sharing this Tsunami!

How to have your fixed gear featured:
1. Email me your extensive parts list: [email protected] with BIKE CHECK in subject line. Include your Instagram handle if you want to be tagged.
2. Tell me your bike's story. Bikes with cool stories are more likely to have bike checks made than bling but boring bikes without a story.
3. Send me your 1080p or 4k video files via Google Drive or Dropbox. Video files must be:
1) 10-15 seconds long each
2) have as little camera movement as possible (little camera shake, no pans/zooms, be horizontal DUH!)
3) 20-25 different shots with 3 shots of your complete bike is a good amount.
4. Keep in mind I'll run ads on the video to help cover the cost of producing the bike checks. Gotta stay fed.
5. Follow this carefully. Bike checks either get made the right way or not at all.
