Marin Fairfax 2 ST Hybrid Bike
FITNESS ROAD RIDING | COMMUTING | BIKE PATH RIDING
The Fairfax 2 is the mid-tier bike in the Fairfax collection, with plenty of upgrades over the base model. It’s built around a fast and light Series 2 aluminium frame and aluminium straight-blade fork and comes with a Shimano 2x8-speed Shimano drivetrain, Clark’s hydraulic disc brakes, Vee Tire Co tires and plenty of reliable Marin components.
Why choose a step-through bicycle frame? Traditionally designed for female riders wearing skirts, the step-through has evolved to suit anyone that prefers a frame that’s far easier to swing a leg over. They’re ideal for less flexible riders, slow-speed urban cycling and riders that need to load their bike up with bags or kids.
Key Upgrades from the Fairfax 1:
- Series 2 Fitness frame
- Straight blade aluminium fork
- Shimano Acera/TY710 2x8 drivetrain
- Vee Tire Zilent tires w/puncture protection
SERIES 2 FRAME
Series 2 frames feature a 6061 aluminium frame with disc brake mounts, integrated headsets, internal cable routing, and fender and rack mounts.
DISC BRAKES
Disc brakes on all Fairfax models provide smooth, controlled stopping in all conditions with minimal maintenance.
STEP THROUGH DESIGN
The Fairfax 2 ST and 1 ST feature a step-through frame design with a lowered toptube for easier mounting and dismounting.
