ABOUT THORN CYCLES LIMITED

and we are the manufacturers of the very highly acclaimed range of Thorn touring bicycles. We cater for the discerning touring and tandem cycling market. We operate solely from our premises here in Bridgwater.

I put a multitool in my pocket and we went out for an "adjustment" tour. Amazingly we finished the tour without touching any bolts or whatsoever. It was built and adjusted to the millimeter. We are very comfortable and engaged on the bike. I can feel it will be an extension of our bodies in upcoming years.

Keep up the excellent work, thanks for your business.

Our initial wobbly ventures were soon transformed into exciting journeys -maybe not expeditions - but definitely longer trips than I had thought we would be capable of in the first stages of this new venture! We have found the Adventure to be a particularly stable platform, and very forgiving. It has definitely helped our confidence to grow. My wife, Sue, who is Visually Impaired, has really enjoyed the ease with which she has become a cyclist again. The Rohloff took a little while to get used to - the gear changes were much more precise than I had bargained for! We're now getting used to it, and particularly appreciate the ability to change gear while standing still. Yes, there is a running noise in the lowest gears, but nothing like I had feared after reading some reviews; and the range of gears has seen us going up hills that it was probably better Sue didn't see before we attempted them!

We're now looking forward to more, and longer trips and would definitely recommend this tandem to others. Thankyou for the time taken to get the specification right, and for the polite efficiency of your service.

Dear All at Thorn Cycles, It has been my pleasure to become the proud owner of a new Thorn Mercury bicycle with Rohloff hub gears. I bought the cycle approximately 6 weeks ago and after the recommended 1000 km of running in I did the John O’Groats to land’s End ride of 1014 miles on it, unsupported with a pannier and bar bag. It is a beautiful machine and functioned absolutely perfectly from day 1. I had no mechanicals and the ride was very comfortable. Steve did a fab job at recommending what I would need and advising me on the gear ratios when I ordered the bike. It has so far, been worth every penny. Thank you for an excellent product and good service.

We are currently in Aigurs-Mortars in France after cycling from Pisa and our bikes get constant attention for tourists who are always asking questions about their gears electrics and so on.
