New Soma Saddles



We have released two more saddles inspired by Italian classics (sorry if that sounds like an Olive Garden reference). Each are available in smooth black or white, or black micro-suede synthetic covers and have satin finish CrMo rails.



The Yamada features a full roundish profile on top, medium depth firm padding, and some brass accents. Euro-looks without Euro-trashing your wallet. 150mm x 274mm


The Kyudo has firm padding with a slightly concave top when viewed from the side, which encourages riders to settle into the sweet spot. You can also pitch the angle forward a little to create a slope that you can push against when climbing in the saddle. Definitely will not feel like those flat minimalistic saddles out there.

This week we are offering a special introductory deal on these at the Soma Shop. These will also be available through local bike shops.

Shop Spotlight: Black Top Cyclery



Blacktop is Bakersfield, CA's only mobile bike boutique. They are a full service repair shop that comes to you, but they don't only do repairs and tune-ups. They can special order hard to find parts. They can build you a dream bike from the ground up, which is how we found them. They had a couple of awesome Soma builds on their blog. Above is a VanNess with a Soma Sparrow w/brown Velox Tape (shellac'd). They also have a Buena Vista build up there, too.

Since they took the time to post some nice photos of our bikes on their site, we thought we'd return the favor and give them some publicity here.
