Soma are a dime a dozen here in the states. Just like Surly. Reliable work bike. Rush has a Tange Prestige front end, with a generic chromo rear. Same with the Delancy, but the delancy looks prettier with lugs and all that jazz. A few guys i know have been beating the shit out of their Rushes around here for years. Soma puts out a fancier image than the product they produce is. In other words, "Designed in San Francisco!!!! (Made in Taiwan)" Which isn't really all that bad.
Good product, better marketing.
