Anyone bought a Mercury 40 yet?
Looking at the specs and have asked Thorn a few questions so far.
It seems that they have rationalised their line up a bit and come up with the Mercury 40 to replace the Mercury Mk3, the Club Tour, and the Audax.
But from what I can gather there has been a bit of a downgrade on some features, notably the frame fittings like cable guides, rack mounts, etc are now no longer stainless steel, and the paint is no longer the Imron of the Mercury Mk3, possibly back to powder coated?
Seems a backward step, but probably based on economics I guess.
Considering a frame to base my rohloff on as haven't used my Sherpa much in recent years since getting a gravel bike from another brand 😱.
