And now for some news.
Rawland Cycles recently announced that it will reissue the Sogn after listening cyclists' suggestions for “refinements of this venerable model.” The price is $500 for frameset orders received by October 15, then the price will go up to $600.
For more on the Sogn, check out the Cycling Spokane blog. If you own a Sogn, leave a comment and let us know how you built it up and whether you're enjoying it.

I had the pleasure of meeting the owner of Rawland recently at a ride. His bike was gorgeous! I look forward to a reissue of the Sogn. 29"/700C rims are super versatile, and 26" rim brake rims are becoming hard to find.
I have a Sogn built up as a camping bike, and it rides great. The big 650b tire clearance is awesome, and I really think that there is little this bike couldn't do. It's a heavier frame than you'd want for road racing, but that's about it.
These are interesting bikes and I would love to see one in person. I *love* the fork crown.
