I don't think you can squeeze 42 mm tires with fenders. Soma's website
states 38 mm without fenders 35 mm with. From what I can tell you can
get the Straggler as a complete bike or a frame only.

Thanks for the replies and feedback all! I am thinking the San
Marcos would probably be perfect. Up to this point, I am able
to get the bars high enough on my LHT due to having an uncut
steerer, but the quill stem certainly would provide easier
adjustment not to mention be more appealing than a giant stack
of spacers. Also, the lighter nature of the San Marcos tubing
is certainly appealing as well. If I can replicate the ride
quality of my old Ram, then it will probably be worth it. I'll
have to double check the geometry, but I think with a dirt
drop stem and some Alba/stache bars it may be upright enough.
Can't seem to handle drops anymore (currently using Jones loop
bars and love 'em). Looks like 42mm tires could be squeezed in
there too with fenders.
