The new Sams will have canti posts, and will come in "rbw blue" and "dark
gold" according to Golden Pliers' most recent IG story. You could probably
shoot them an email asking about the exact frame spec!

Nathan, thanks. I've seen people running 50mm fenders elsewhere and that
gave me some hope. Like you, I'll be interested to see if this new
iteration clears bigger tires. I also hope its canti-compatible.
Ash, somehow there's always more room in the garage
On Wednesday, August 26,
I am secretly hoping that the next Sam would be made for wider tires (and
ever so slightly longer chain-stay). There's no space in the garage for
another bike, but I'll somehow make space in the living room if there is
going to be a 51cm Sam that can run 650bx2.15 Almotions :)
On Wednesday,
I run 43mm Gravelkings on my 55 canti sam w/fenders and they fit fine. I
think the 50mm would probably squeeze in (assuming they are a slick tire,
and not knobby), but you'd be leaving very little room for any debris. That
might be an issue if your wheel is ever slightly out of true or dish.
