Title: stolen Thorn
Post by: Pcarlton on February 13, 2017, 06:12:04 AM

The Thorn bicycle I inherited from my father last year was stolen from my garage in Salisbury yesterday.  It is Blue with bad scratching on the top tube that has been touched up but is still visible.
It has a silver pannier rack too.  If anyone sees this advertised please let me know via email or on 07768 994283, thanks

How contemptuous.  Let's hope you get it back soon. Do you know which model your Thorn is? Perhaps you have a photo you can share with us. I'm sure fellow forumites would be happy to help if possible.

Very sorry to hear this. Forum members do trawl the sale sites and post about them on here, but I suppose a whole stolen bike is less likely to be offered in this way. Worth letting the members here know if a Rohloff hub, if so which colour.

Good luck

Interesting example of an early Thorn so will be distinctive if found or put up for sale. Looks like a classic with the quill stem and DT shifts. Can Anyone ID the model?
