A COMMUTER'S BEST FRIEND
The Marin Presidio range has been specifically built with commuters in mind, who demand a low maintenance bike that is always ready to get you to work on time. Every component on this bike has been hand-picked based on adaptability and dependability. This includes the internal gearing throughout the entire range, hydraulic disc brakes for all weather riding and puncture resistant tyres to keep you rolling.
The Marin Presidio is built around a 6061-aluminium frame with custom, hydro shaped tubbing to increase strength in the most important areas of the frame, whilst reducing material and overall weight in other areas where frame compliancy equals ride comfort. The frame geometry utilizes road and mountain bike features, making this a very fast bike when you put power down, yet agile and upright enough to have you zig-zag through bumper to bumper traffic. As a true commuter bike, the Presidio comes with full-fledged fender mounts and rack mounts. Internal cable routing, keeps the Presidio looking clean and smart whilst also protecting the cables from the elements.
The Marin Presidio 2 comes equipped with the Shimano Nexus 7-speed internally geared hub and shifter. Shimano Nexus hub gears are sealed and lubricated inside the wheel hub which protects them from water, grit and impact. This means less maintenence is required and they are more reliable over time. Furthermore, with hub gears, you can change gears when the rear wheel is not rotating making it a great system for commuter cycling with frequent stops.
Marin have selected a pair of puncture resistant Vee Baldy tyres with a semi-slick thread. Not only are these tyres extremely dependable but they are also very fast on an urban environment where you need to keep up with the cars around you, jump up and down curbs, and take the often shortcut through the park. You will also notice the reflective sidewall on the tyres to increase your safety on the road during night time riding. The wheelset is complete with a pair of lightweight aero-shaped-double-wall disc-specific rims made by Marin.
Proving Marins’ commitment in creating a true all-rounder commuter bike, the Presidio comes equipped with Tektro M275 hydraulic disc brakes for effortless, yet precise braking performance. With rotors located at the centre of the wheel, the Presidio brakes 3x better in the rain when compared to rim brake bikes.
To ensure comfort, a flat handlebar with ergonomically designed hand grips that helps lessen hand fatigue and a Marin Fitness Plush saddle sits you in the perfect position to enjoy long hours on the saddle.
The Marin Presidio is a true combination of artistry and aesthetics and we have no doubt that it will help you rule the city regardless of what you are faced with.
