MADE FOR FUN
Marin Bikes are Made For Fun. Since the first mountain bikes bearing the Marin Bikes name debuted in 1986, the brand has been dedicated to enriching the lives of our riders by making fun, high caliber bicycles, which provide years of riding enjoyment. We operate a business based on hard work, fueled by passion, and fulfilled by the satisfaction of bringing the joy of cycling to riders across the world.

Whether your idea of fun involves riding rugged trails to that high alpine lake, pinning on a race number and entering your first race, taking the long way home on your commuter bike, bikepacking to that remote campsite, or just exploring the neighborhood bike paths, Marin brings the fun to your ride. It’s the principle that guides us when developing new bikes, from long-travel, trail-devouring machines that are at home in some of the world’s most challenging race circuits to the multi-surface capable pavement collection. Each model is designed to be playful and to maximize the opportunities for two-wheeled fun.

‘Flat’ handlebars have that classic ‘mountain bike’ look. They’re wider and straighter than drop-bars and you place your hands on the grips at either end. Obvious, right?

Flat handlebars offer a more upright position on your bike, lifting your head up and straightening out your back.

They don’t need as much flexibility to use, they can help keep your eyes ‘up’ making it easier to see what’s coming up and they can make riding with a backpack easier.

Marin was one of the first brands to bring hybrid bikes to market, and our lineup of flat bar models has evolved over the decades. Now encompassing the Fairfax, Terra Linda, Presidio, Muirwoods, Larkspur, San Rafael, San Anselmo, Kentfield, and Stinson models.
