Sadly just snapped my Soma Double Cross Disc. It's had a fairly light life, but is 10 years old now. This is my favourite bike.
I'm planning to replace it with a v4 Wolverine. But, I'd really like to run some 700x50mm Gravelkings in it. Max clearance is listed as 45mm – anyone had any luck?
Or, what else is there these days with similar upright classic Wolverine geometry, nice small diameter tubing, and big clearance under £1k? I'm also 195cm and Soma are one of few offering 62 frames with big headtubes. Others on my list are a Fairlight Faran 61... but I've not seem one with big swoopy Magic Moth bars and a basket. Might be sacrilege.
