Marin Presidio 3 Hybrid Bike
COMMUTING
CITY TRANSIT
The Marin Presidio 3 is the commuter bike of your dreams, because why shouldn’t your daily driver also be a sports car? Marin have built a fast, fun and exciting commuter with a lightweight Series 2 aluminium frame and straight-blade fork.
They’ve also added heaps of reliability and “woah, that’s cool!” with a Gates Carbon Drive 8-speed belt-driven drivetrain and internally-geared Shimano Nexus rear hub. Shimano hydraulic disc brakes, Vee Tire tires and plenty of reliable Marin components complete the package.
Key upgrades over the Presidio 2:
- Shimano Nexus 8D 8-speed internally geared hub
- Gates CDN belt drive
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 centered 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.
TIRE CLEARANCE
Presidio models can accommodate most tires up to 45mm without fenders, or 40mm with fenders.
