Title: SJS Cycles has "last yellow Audax" for sale - size 555S/M
Post by: Danneaux on June 20, 2013, 06:07:58 PM

Hi All!

Thorn (via their Facebook page) have just announced..."The last Yellow Thorn Audax at a bargain price, ready to go!":

http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/thorn-audax-mk3-555s-m-tonka-yellow-gloss-sjsc-special-spec-prod26246/

It is a Mk3 at £200 off. The color is still listed in the current brochure as a "guest colour". According to the brochure... http://www.sjscycles.com/thornpdf/Thorn_Audax_Mk3.pdf , pg. 4...

Quote

Guest colours are colours, that we have small quantities of frames sprayed in, when we need to order more red or blue frames. Please note guest colours may be out of stock and may never be available again in your frame size.

That makes this one very special indeed!

It is a lovely looking bike -- an absolute beauty!

Best,

Dan. (...who thinks this would be Andre's color if he chose an Audax)

Hi Dan
If only it was a frameset and not a build up bike!
Its the right size and colour for me and Tom.

I have been looking to buy a 555s and get it repainted to match!

Aw, Pete!

What luck...well, could you get it whole and sell your cargo bike after the market/walnut season? Get that driving job, and you're set for that and your RTW tour!

Best,

Dan.

Ha Ha Dan,
But I still have a load of bike parts and wheels to build up my next bike!

PS: I can get Walnuts all year round! So a side from working weekend I can sell all year round.

Pete.....

Maybe I'll get a Black and have it repainted?

Hello!
This frameset was on the SJSC website for weeks at the reduced price of £375. Eyes open more often?
Enjoy the thought.

There also seems to be a full size range of Audax Mk3 framesets in pink: http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/thorn-audax-mk3-frame-and-fork-set-fuschia-pink-prod16599/ No discount for these, however.

Pink will remain, its a very popular colour (we just got a pile more in) so will probably go from a guest colour to a permanant one. Yesterday we booked in the new guest colour Gunmetal (same finish as the Gunmetal Mercury) already sold 3 of these!
