Soma Frame Double Cross Disc

A great do-all frame. Ready for cyclo-cross, trail-riding, commuting and medium duty loaded touring. Comes in a wide range of sizes to fit you right - up to 66cm! We have increased tire clearance slightly and added stiffer, lighter dropouts. We are also adding an ED coating to the insides of our frames for long term protection against rust. For the latest version, we have tweaked the geometry to make it even a better all rounder. A slacker headtube angle for less twitchy handling in gravel and off-road descents. A lower bottom bracket height for more on-road stability loaded or unloaded. Improved mud clearance for 650b x 47mm tires.
