Marin Kentfield 2 Hybrid Bike

The Marin Kentfield 2 Hybrid Bike is the top-tier model in Marin's everyday hybrid range — an honest, reliable, well-specced bike designed to handle city streets, cycle paths, towpaths and the odd bit of light gravel with equal confidence. The Series 1 6061 aluminium frame is light, responsive, and dripping with practical eyelets for racks and mudguards, while the BMX-inspired CrMo steel Moto Blade fork adds a dose of style and a lot of front-end durability. Upright hybrid geometry keeps your head up and your back happy, making the Kentfield 2 the kind of bike you actually want to ride day in, day out. The MicroSHIFT Advent X 1x10 drivetrain gives you a wide 11–48T gear range without the faff of a front derailleur — easy to use, easy to maintain, and plenty of range for everything from steep climbs to flat-out commutes. Power CX7 mechanical disc brakes with 160mm rotors front and rear deliver dependable, all-weather stopping, and the 700c x 40mm Vee GPVee tyres roll fast on tarmac but have enough width and flat protection to shrug off bumpier surfaces. A plush Marin Adventure saddle and ergonomic cockpit round things out for genuine all-day comfort.
