Soma Juice 29er Frame
Details
Flavor-enhanced, offering a longer top tube and slacker angles
If we have to use the category buzzwords the industry keeps inventing, the Juice is a "downcountry" or "trail" bike. We describe it as a fun bike that is very comfortable on a single track, flowy trails, and general backwood exploring. Its medium-length wheelbase also makes it a stable platform for bike-packing.
The latest version features tough IRD Broski Sliding Dropouts that allow you to go single-speed or geared or even run hub gears and alter ride characteristics slightly by adjusting the chainstay length. Fits up to 27.5 x 2.8" wide tires without needing to invest in Boost parts. Hasn't abandoned front derailleur compatibility.
Another unusual option: the Juice is available in a belt-drive-ready version.
- Tange Prestige heat-treated butted CrMo steel; butted CrMo rear end
- Geometry is optimized for 100mm travel 29" forks and will handle 120mm forks great, too
- Standard or Belt-Drive compatible versions available (split for installing belt is on the seat stay.)
- IRD Broski Sliding Dropouts allow geared and single-speed builds with easy wheel removal
– These currently come ready for 142 x 12mm Thru-Axle hubs. (Can be converted to 135mm spacing for traditional QR hubs with IRD aftermarket inserts)
