Is it a thorn? No decals...but £900 for a rohloff hub bike isn't bad

Definitely a Thorn and definitely residing in my shed  ;D
I went out over the hills last night after changing the tyres to something more suitable and I absolutely love the Rohloff and the simplicity of the rest of the bike.
Although the bike is a little heavy it is great fun to ride and inspires plenty of confidence.
The bike shop that sold it serviced everything and had the frame powder coated so it is like new. Just need a 'Thorn' sticker pack.
I'm a happy bunny with my Thorn.

Hehe congrats!

Thorns are built to last/carry so the parts are a tad heavier than a competition mountainbike but it will give you years of use  :D
