Carbon fiber fork enhances steering exactness and reduces high-frequency road vibrations. Double-wall rims and Kenda 700x28 tires provide a sporty ride yet withstand customary hard-surface abuse. Fairfax's lightweight aluminum frame features road bike geometry, placing you over the pedals in optimal position for day-long cruising. Linear pull brakes are forged for strength and power modulated for controlled response. Marin® Fairfax provides the comfort of an upright ride with the fun of road bike performance—all for a price that let's you add the extras! Platform pedals with toe cages enhance pedaling efficiency and accommodate most athletic shoes. Plus, the frame is triple-butted—the tubes are thick at the ends and narrow twice toward the middle—for strength and weight savings. Shimano shifters and derailleurs move you smoothly from gear to gear; shifters operate easily using just your thumb and first finger. Truvativ 52/42/30 crankset and an 8-speed, 12/24 cassette provide 24 gears, suitable for handling everything from easy climbs to aggressive sprints. Upright positioning reduces strain on the hands, wrists and shoulders and increases the rider's field of view—a plus in busy traffic. WTB Speed V Sport saddle is contoured for all-day comfort and anatomical support.
