I emailed Soma Fabrications. They are currently awaiting the full size run of 
prototypes from the factory. They will then have to confer with RBW about 
whether it is Thumbs up or Thumbs down.

No time estimate was given.

Thanks,
Sean

I am really really interested in this bike. Has anyone heard anything new? I am 
sure we are talking Mid 2011 now, right?





I would reckon - and this is absolute and pure conjecture - that SOMA couldn't 
nail delivery for this year, and probably decided that they'd intro it at 
Interbike (industry trade show on the immediate horizon) and go forward with 
firm orders for 2011.



It's always been a SOMA project, as far as the distribution was concerned (and 
hence a Merry Sales Co issue).   I'd expect that with the economy of the last 
couple years, they would want to have it timed for maximum impact and minimum 
exposure.  Having a container land in November, when none of your dealers are 
buying much is a pretty big risk, as an example.
