Mercury 610s for sale - Rohloff + Schmidt, low mileage
« on: June 17, 2021, 02:12:24 PM »
Selling my 2018 Thorn Mercury - size 610s - so I thought I’d post it here before heading to eBay.

Fully loaded with Rohloff hub and Schmidt dynamo.  Embarrassingly only done just over 700km on it in that time (another bike stole my heart…).  Unsurprisingly, given its low mileage, it’s in great condition.  Cost just over £4k when new and have added a few bits since then (rack and pitlock skewers). 

It’s simply not getting used and stares at me from the corner of the garage so time to pass it on to someone who can use it for what is was designed.  I’d like £2k for it - based in Wiltshire so for collection or could meet you somewhere within 100km or so.

That's a beauty. Must admit I did consider it when I saw it on eBay ... HOWEVER, I would really only want it for the Wheels, and Edelux, it's too good and too new for that. Hope you find a buyer

This hasn't been on eBay yet - though it does look like a previous post!

Is it still for sale by any chance?
