Bought this a couple of months ago on ebay but my touring plans have changed.
I'm 5'7" and I would say it's a good fit, with a bit of room on either side.
The Thorn Nomad frame is built to carry heavy loads on expedition tours so it's on the heavy side but feels comfortable to ride when loaded up. The frame is handmade and has been resprayed.
Looking for £500 collected in person in London. I live at N16 7RA but am happy to meet most places. Rear rack and pedals not included (I will put on a different pair of pedals so you can ride it away)
Oh ok, my mistake thank you for the correction! I'll update the add now.

Formatting Help
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
