NONE of my 700C tires, rims, tubes, or wheels can be mounted on such a frame. I agree with Grandy that the 1" threaded design is antiquated. I also realize certain people like special, fancy-schmancy stuff and perhaps this frame speaks to that Velocodgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11461347465806639954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1225246134093731211.post-35361571552570371012011-01-16T22:46:42.965-08:002011-01-16T22:46:42.965-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Velocodgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11461347465806639954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1225246134093731211.post-39057660239686180852010-09-10T16:39:33.347-07:002010-09-10T16:39:33.347-07:00any ETA on release?...will it accept larger tires ...any ETA on release?...will it accept larger tires (up to 32cm) with fenders?...wonder how it will differ from their famous rambouillet???canalihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16501626403548084495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1225246134093731211.post-71522739782795623312010-03-08T10:22:00.543-08:002010-03-08T10:22:00.543-08:00I'm hoping to get one of these when they come ...I'm hoping to get one of these when they come out.

I have been looking to build a Rivish road bike up for my wife. She rides from a 47-50 deponding on the frame, and a top tube closer to 50, not 52 helps. Custom is out of the budget, and the Saluki is the next closest, but also out of range. <br /><br />Keeping my fingers crossed on these, hopfully it can be a bday gift by the end of Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02419165252351073857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1225246134093731211.post-12105033018962799252010-01-20T15:15:34.693-08:002010-01-20T15:15:34.693-08:00My dream bike in every way, but I just don't g...My dream bike in every way, but I just don't get the 1" threaded fork/headset. That antiquated design is the only reason that I chose a custom built Tom Teesdale mountain touring frame over a Rivendell Atlantis. In my 30 years of riding before threadless, I've had nothing but problems with creaky, flexy, sticky quill stems and pain-in-the-butt to adjust headsets. 1" threaded grandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16729345923898282372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1225246134093731211.post-58506825862815977992010-01-12T19:11:53.803-08:002010-01-12T19:11:53.803-08:00I hope you are able to get it out sooner than 2011...I hope you are able to get it out sooner than 2011.

The San Marcos sounds like it's going to satisfy that criteria. Love the new logo lettering too - SOMA's best yet.
