I bought this machine in September 2011 for commuting, weekend rides and the odd expedition but sadly have not got around to any expeditions. This is an over spec bike for light touring so I am going to buy a club tour instead. I have been using my Audax in preference and the poor old Nomad has been idle - hence the sale. I know a they are a complete contrast but I had to try one of these legendary Nomads. I am hoping someone with a more adventurous spirit can make better use of its abilities.
It has done approx 2500miles and had one oil change. (due for its second about now) The bike is in very good order with no damage or mechanical problems.
