FS: Thorn Nomad Mk1 £500

Posted on
  • 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)
