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 --- On Wed, 9/8/10, CycloFiend <cyclofi...@earthlink.net> wrote: From: CycloFiend <cyclofi...@earthlink.net> Subject: Re: [RBW] AMOS / San Marcos Update?

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. - Jim -- Jim Edgar cyclofi...@earthlink.net Cyclofiend Bicycle Photo Galleries - http://www.cyclofiend.com Current Classics - Cross Bikes Singlespeed - Working Bikes Gallery updates now appear here - http://cyclofiend.blogspot.com "Steel's what you want for a messenger bike.
