Itching to quench that wanderlust with an epic tour? Or do you just need to carry stuff on a regular basis? We believe that the most fun you can have with your bike is when you're out on little adventures: whether it's taking a long way home, discovering a new trail or packing your bags and going out for a few days, months or years. When touring you need components that are practical, durable and easy to maintain and service on the road.

The Soma Gullwing was designed to be the most natural way to adapt a road bike to flat bars while still retaining your integrated road shift/brake levers.
The bar has a 30mm rise and 25ª backsweep. Harder to see in photos is the 7° drop at the grips which suits a semi-aggressive ride position and puts your wrists in a better angle to operate the levers. The curve for the backsweep also creates the ideal amount of brake lever travel for road levers.
The brake lever hoods can be used as a secondary place to rest your hands and to get more aero. Hood position feels similar to a 38cm road bar, which is fine, since this is not the primary hand position.
Grip section is 22.2mm OD, so you can either run MTB grips or bar tape.
Straight section near the clamp is 110mm wide, which gives some room for accessories or possibly aero bars.
Designed in Japan by Tokyo San Esu.
• Width: 620mm • Center: 31.8mm OD • Material: 6061-T6 Aluminum • Rise: 30mm (with 7° down slope at grips) • Backsweep: 25° • Grip OD: 22.2mm • Lever mounting area OD: 23.8mm • Weight: 290g
*** Not feasible to use with Campagnolo Ergo levers, L-Twoo, or other models where one of the shifters is on the inboard side of the lever. ** There is no room on the grip area for a full-length MTB and an MTB lever.

Aluminum rear rack with graceful curves and a decent length for large panniers. – Fits 26" wheels to larger 700c gravel tires – Dimensions 36cm x 14cm x 38cm (L x W x H) – Matte Black or Matte Silver finish – Rear allows bolting on a reflector
(Note current design of the upper hardware is better suited for frame braze-ons that are imbedded into the side of the seatstays and less friendly to braze-ons that sit on top of the seatstays and align perpendicular to the bike. Order a pair of straight stays if your bike has eyelets mounted similar to our Soma Wolverine or Double Cross frames.)

Comfortable, 2.5mm thick, shock absorbent material Primary material is a special formulation of EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate)resin. This material is the result of extensive testing to make sure it has the right balance of strength and stretchiness, that it absorbs vibration, is oxidation resistant, and is water resistant, but does not get slippery in the rain. More environmentally-friendly material than PVC. Its production does not result in heavy metal waste. Chrome plastic bar plugs and finish tape included Enough tape for one complete road drop-bar For extreme grip choose the option with the Striated texture. For extra shock absorption choose the option with Cork bits.

The original inspiration for the Wolverine was “monster cross”, but it is seriously so much more. Its geometry is stable enough for off road touring, but sporty enough for all-around adventure. The primary differences between the version 3.0 Wolverine and the v. 4 Type-A and B is a new 46cm size, an extra set of water bottle bosses, and additional stack height on most sizes.The Type-A ALSO adopts more modern standards such as 142mm rear thru-axle and a 44mm headtube that will fit 1-1/8 straight steerer or tapered steerer with the proper headset type. NO frame break for Belt-Drive. (See chart for other differences between A and B)

The original inspiration for the Wolverine was “monster cross”, but it is seriously so much more. Its geometry is stable enough for off road touring, but sporty enough for all-around adventure and gravel riding. With its sliding dropouts, you can run single-speed, derailleur gearing or hub gearing (Rohloff, etc). With a split seatstay, it is compatible with the Gates Carbon Belt Drive.
2023 brings our version 4.1 B-Type that adopts flat mount brakes on both frame and fork. Version 4.0 which uses the IS brake mount will be available most of 2023. Flat mounts have become the primary standard for road brakes, but IS mounts are still more convenient for builds running flat bars, MTB drivetrains, or larger disc rotors
(Also check out the Wolverine v.4.1 Type-A, which adopts slightly more modern standards! See chart in photo gallery for their differences)
