I don’t really know that frameset, but I’m fair sure it’s not supposed to do that.

I remember back in the day Aventón having the same QC issues with their forks.

Relatively in the Philippines, Tsunami Forks have a bad reputation of snapping for even at a slightest pressure around it, but the frame over all is more robust and have a longer life span.Â
It’s quite common for us to just sell this forks, or even trade them to a different bike parts,
Buying another fork that has a better reputation is more suitable then the trash that Tsunami made of those forks,Â
But hey great frame tho

No damage is awesome dude, buy a lottery ticket (no don’t, buy a beer instead) really happy for that and you!
Damage, QC, hard riding, of perhaps a combo of it all. If from a shop go back to them ofc
Aluminium? That’s wild
Nice, you got Affinity quality at Tsunami prices!
I’ve been eyeing the tsunami’s i love the polished aluminum one aesthetically but this is pretty terrifying 😬
Ejecto forko, cuz
aliexpress frame strikes back
I think that’s a stunami snm100 v1 bro, well known issue here in the Philippines.
They already fixed that problem In the v2’s and v3’s.
But this happened to my v2 because of a crash, so just bought allucarb fork

Slap a little JB Weld on it and it’ll be fine
