{"product_id":"soma-riff-27-5-frame-pearl-white-1","title":"Soma Riff 27.5 Frame Pearl White","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe version 2 of the Riff offers practical updates to features and geometry without going all-in with \"progressive geometry\" that almost every brand has adopted. Our reason is that we wanted to keep this frame as a hardtail that's great for bike packing and has a familiar-feeling on long days in the saddle on rolling terrain. \"Progressive geometry,\" which can be awesome for steep technical trails, can feel less fun or even uncomfortable on flatter terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe did opt for more reach, a slightly steeper seat angle for more efficient climbing, and shorter seat tubes to benefit dropper post use. We also got rid of seat tube bottle bosses on some sizes to allow longer dropper posts to be used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rear hub spacing is now Boost 148mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStill a highlight on the Riff are the tough Broski Sliding Dropouts, which lets you tune your chainstay length as well as allowing you to run the as a bike single-speed, with derailleur gears or with hub gears.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTange Prestige heat-treated butted CrMo steel; butted CrMo rear end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeometry is optimized for 120mm travel forks - also works well with a 100mm fork.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisc brakes only (ISO tabs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIRD Broski Sliding Dropouts allows geared and single-speed builds with easy wheel removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eS-bend seatstays and chainstays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear rack and fender eyelets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eED coating inside frame and underpaint increase rust resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCNC-machined 44mm headtube: Will take 1-1\/8\" steerers with a ZeroStack 44 headset or tapered steerers with a ZS44 upper assembly and external cup (EC44) lower assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e31.6mm post size\/34.9mm frt. der. size\/34.9mm seat collar (not included), 73mm bottom bracket (English threads); 400mm+ post recommended\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended tire size: 27.5 x 1.95\" - 2.8”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Aqua Mint or Pearl White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 2591g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizes: XS(38cm), SM(41cm), MD(44cm), LG(47cm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg title=\"2024 SOMA RIFF GEO\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wideopen.co.nz\/content\/2717p51.jpg\" alt=\"2024 SOMA RIFF GEO\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1809\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wide Open","offers":[{"title":"Soma Frame Riff Pearl White XSM","offer_id":46391759175919,"sku":null,"price":2049.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Soma Frame Riff Pearl White SML","offer_id":46391759208687,"sku":null,"price":2049.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Soma Frame Riff Pearl White MED","offer_id":46391759241455,"sku":null,"price":2049.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Soma Frame Riff Pearl White LRG","offer_id":46391759274223,"sku":null,"price":2049.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/8013\/2529\/files\/t5142rp18_8442f34e-d1e9-4a8f-94a8-e5332f086566.jpg?v=1744636473","url":"https:\/\/vbike.co.nz\/products\/soma-riff-27-5-frame-pearl-white-1","provider":"VBike","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
