Marin's flagship hybrid, the Fairfax 1 (and its sibling, the Terra Linda 1), is our best seller for a reason! The Fairfax is an excellent commuter/city bike that can just as easily handle long weekend rides. With mechanical disc brakes for powerful all-weather stopping force, 3x7 gearing to tackle the hills, and a steel fork to absorb road vibration, the New York Times #1 pick for hybrids is pretty much the perfect city bike.
