  • saw a guy on a Soma Rush frame yesterday- must admit it looked good. ideal looking geometry imo. black it was.

    who in london sells them and how much should i expect to pay?

    anyone here got one?

  • Hipp's got one.

    he likes it, I thinik

  • Mosquito in Islington (Essex Rd) are a dealer.

  • Yep. It's nice.

  • high BB

    it's a genuine track bike, is it not?

  • I don't know what the measurements are but it is high. Soma say it's basically a track frame with brake drillings. Those are 170mm cranks btw.

    Nope, this one: http://www.somafab.com/geometry03.html yeah, 58mm.

  • mosquito have decided not to stock the rush this year, but im sure you could get them to special order one if you asked nicely.

  • hippy Yep. It's nice.

    what she ride like?! :p

  • Lewis from Lewes mosquito have decided not to stock the rush this year, but im sure you could get them to special order one if you asked nicely.

    was looking into this in sept. i couldn't handle the wait! i think i caught them at a bad time though cos they were just about to stock the peace maker... hmm very nice.

    Aye, I'd say it qualifies as a 'track bike'. Decent geo, handles well on the 'drome, reasonably light and stiff. Don't know if the BB is 'Manchester' spec but its pretty high.

    They now come in a fetching white but the Forest Green ones are probably the freshest ones :)

  • I looked into buying one before I bought the Pissa.

    Thought it was a bit ordinary and kinda weighty. The thrash-inspired black/purple colourscheme was rock, though.

  • BB drop is less than one of these..
