Thorn Ripio Size 595 For Sale
« on: August 04, 2014, 09:19:27 PM »
Hello All

Price £600

I am selling my Ripio, after completing just a few short tours it became apparent that my 6'2" frame needed a larger bike, I have since replaced it with a Sherpa with sizing that suits me much better, a 610XL.

Photos can be seen on the following link (hope it works):

Here is the link to the Thorn Brochure which will help with sizing if you are unsure, Thorn recommend a max user height of 6'1" I believe:

I am the second owner, the first owner took it over the Himalayas on a 2 month trip and it stood for a couple of years before I bought the bike.  I have owned the bike for around 18 months and I carried out the following work when I bought it,  it has covered no more than 500 miles since this work was carried out;

- Full Service including greasing all bearings and replacing all stainless bolts.
- New Cables and outers all round
- New Chain
- New Bottom Bracket

The bike is in great condition and would make a great bike for someone wanting a tourer that is equally as capable as a mountain bike, I have used it a couple of times off road and it is great fun.

I am in Sale, Greater Manchester.  Please either reply on the forum or send me a message if you have any questions or would like to have a look at the bike.

Thanks very much, Jack.

Your photo link needs a 'permission to view' so the gatekeeper won't let us in.
