Soma Pescadero Frameset Slate Grey
Beautiful frame, named after a beautiful town! These frames ride so smooth and look so clean with no disc rotors. Get in touch about a custom build or order the frame to reserve it and then I'll reach out about components!
If you're the first to get this new color from Scrub Jay, you'll also get 15% off on black Paul Component brakes I have in the shop!
Stock is pretty limited for this color.
The final picture is the old black colorway.
Here's the write-up from Soma:
Rim brakes on a nice road frame in 2024? What the heck?
The majority of new "all-road" bikes embracing wider tires are automatically going to disc brakes. And disc brakes are an effective technology that we also adopt on other Soma frames. But what about cyclists who wants the benefits of wider road tires, but want the clean, classic look of a road caliper brakes (i.e. rim brakes) or just prefer how easy they are to adjust and maintain? The Pescadero is for these souls in mind.
Its road sport geometry allows you to pedal hard and long with less physical and mental fatigue. A great choice for gran fondos or all day rides on winding country roads. While you can throw on 700 x 28c tires like every other endurance road bike has these days, the Pescadero allows for plusher, more comfortable rubber up to 700 x 38c.
