Thorn Nomad MK 2 - 620L- The Ultimate Expedition Touring Bike My Thorn Nomad MK 2 (620L) is for sale - it is a fantastic bike.
It was bought new, by me, direct from SJS Cycles in 2011 and is in excellent (almost as new) condition.
It has been regularly serviced (twice yearly) and meticulously maintained.
There are a few very minor hairline scratches but these are not at all obvious and need to be searched for. The rear rack is however marked from pannier rubbing.
The bike is located in Padstow, Cornwall and I would prefer it to be collected rather than posted - However I will box and post if i have to....
It has just been fully serviced, including an oil change, and is literally ready for anything.
I'm happy to answer any questions and any inspection / test is welcomed.
The size is 620L....so its for tall (6ft plus) riders
