Title: Wanted - Thorn MK3
Post by: Jennbeans on December 23, 2011, 08:32:21 PM
Hello,
I've finally decided that the Thorn MK3 is my perfect bike! The problem is I can't afford a new one, so....
if anyone wants to sell theirs to me it would find a happy time on the Isle of Skye as I commute to my new job and tour the western isles...
I'm about 5ft6/7 so think a 53cm would fit me well. Any tips welcome!
Thanks
Jenny  :)

Not mine, but very similar forerunner to the MK3 Audax - worth a bid?

That looks like a very nice bike, I think the Brevet was only discontinued to reduce costs/price in relation to the Reynolds tubing (which I would probably prefer anyway being a bit of a traditionalist).
