Marin Fairfax SC2 IG review

Nov 2015 · Simon Withers

Comfortable, practical and good value bike that rises above the ‘hybrid’ name. Buy if you want a great value hybrid with no razzmatazz

Highs

  • Low-maintenance hub gears, good grips and a very comfortable ride

Lows

  • Mainly pretty basic kit, and the v-brakes don’t compare with disc brakes
