What's the difference between the Sterling and the Nomad please ?
Julien, the Enduro was an evolution of Thorn's Enduro and Catalyst MTB efforts and offered clearance for 2.4in tires. Unlike the Nomad Mk2, it was not rated to carry very much luggage/cargo (about 15kg max). Please see (from the archives; confirmed available at present):

http://web.archive.org/web/20091007191718/http://www.sjscycles.com/thornpdf/Thorn_Sterling_lowres.pdf -- Frame dimensions are on pg. 6 for comparison to the current Nomad Mk2. Page 7 explains its "mission" in detail.

Best,

Dan.
