Paul - From https://www.somafab.com/archives/product/supple-vitesse-ex-700c-clincher-tire, original SV sizes were 23, 28, 33, 38, and 42. My interpretation is that Soma is continuing to make the 42mm SV and the statement you quoted should be read as the available sizes are now 28c to 42c, (23c no longer being made).
