New Soma Double Cross: Midnight Silver w/ Disc tabs
I received my new Soma today. I've started a post in Commuting on the build: https://www.bikeforums.net/commuting/465594-commuter-bike-project-part-one.html
The fork is a new Ridley 4ZA Zornyc that was uncut, t's a recent take-off from a new bike. Ridley builds some outstanding carbon bikes, so I expect the fork is well made. It is approved for off-road work, including CX racing, and it saves a full pound over most steel forks.
The wheelset includes Mavic CXP-22 Double-Wall Rims and DT Doubled Butted Champion Spokes, & Felt Sealed-Bearing Hubs
