Marin Presidio 2 Hybrid Bike
COMMUTING
CITY TRANSIT
Balancing performance and value, the mid-point Marin Presidio 2 gets a whole load of upgrades over its base model. Marin have built a fast, fun and exciting commuter with a lightweight Series 2 aluminium frame and straight-blade fork. They’ve added a whole load of simplicity and reliability with an internally-geared, Shimano Nexus 7-speed drivetrain, Shimano hydraulic disc brakes, Vee Tire tires and plenty of reliable Marin components.
Key Upgrades from the Presidio 1:
- Series 2 Commute butted and formed aluminium frame
- Lightweight aluminium fork
- Shimano Nexus 7D internally geared hub
- Shimano disc brakes
LIGHTWEIGHT ALUMINUM FRAME
Presidio frames are constructed of lightweight 6061 aluminium tubing with internal cable routing, and rack and fender mounts. Series 2 tubing on the Presidio 3 and 2 models add belt drive compatible forged slider dropouts for internally geared hubs.
MARIN SLIDER DROPOUTS
Marin's new slider dropouts were created specifically to bring the best technologies for commute bikes into a clean and tidy package. The dropouts slide to tension belts and chains, while incorporating flat mount disc brakes, and a direct mount rear kickstand to support the bike where weight is centred with gear.
DISC BRAKES
Hydraulic disc brakes provide smooth, controlled stopping in all conditions with minimal maintenance.
INTERNALLY GEARED HUBS
Internally geared hubs on the Presidio 3 and 2 package the gearing into a compact, maintenance-free package.
