Reviews

Best of 2023. Adventure on and off the road - that's what the Marin Headlands 2 promises. In addition to a sporty geometry, the gravel bike is particularly characterized by its large tire clearance for up to 700C×45 or 650B×50 tires. This makes it feel good even off the road. The standard dropper post is also perfect for more rugged/rough use. Practical: A removable brace between the seatstays makes it very easy to attach fenders for riding in bad weather and the like.
