Disc Road Bikes and Thru Axles

Well....my head is saying return it and have a full refund.
But over the last couple of years I've driven MrsW to absolute despair, researching this, looking at that etc etc and I don't have a second option to fall back on either.
So although I don't necessarily have to start from scratch again, it would feel like it.
I've just emailed Kinesis about my disappointment and asked what the future plans are for adding a thru axle to the rear. Not that l would believe what they said anyway given my recent experience with them.
It also depends on what they are prepared to offer me in terms of compensation for the 2 x 130 mile trips l'm now faced with.
Sell it, buy a road bike with normal caliper brakes and don't get sucked in to the road bike disc brake mythology again. bb
