Marin Gestalt 2 Gravel Bike

The Marin Gestalt 2 is a versatile gravel and adventure road bike designed for riders who want the speed of a drop-bar bike with the stability and capability to explore beyond paved roads. It features a Series 3 Beyond Road 6061 aluminum frame paired with a full carbon fork, creating a balanced combination of durability, comfort, and performance. The frame includes internal cable routing, mudguard and rack mounts, flat-mount disc brakes, and 12mm thru-axles. The full-carbon fork also features a tapered steerer, flat-mount disc compatibility, 12mm thru-axle, and fender eyelets.

This wide gear range makes the bike suitable for everything from fast road sections to steep gravel climbs. Hydraulic Shimano GRX RX400 disc brakes with 160mm rotors provide confident braking, while WTB Exposure Comp 700×36 tires offer additional comfort and grip across mixed surfaces.
