The same carbon frame and fork with our in frame Bear Box storage is now adorns with a full 1 x 13 Sram Rival wireless transmission, Sram Rival hydraulic disc brakes, a TransX dropper post and a stiff, light and efficient Novatec G24 carbon wheelset. A Marin finishing kit tops off the boutique build list - we're very excited for this one!

Show full description and specs

Fully loaded bikepacking, fast and light off-road adventures, gravel and CX racing… or simply exploring your favorite tracks and trails. The Marin Headlands is a high tech, high-spec carbon fiber gravel and adventure bike that’s made to be lightning-fast, confidence-inspiring and super comfortable on all surfaces.

We’ve taken our own unidirectional carbon fiber frame, added mountain bike-inspired geometry, loads of tire clearance and a whole heap of mounting points for gear and fenders to create a super versatile, super capable all-terrain dart of a bike. Go 700c with room for up to 45mm tires or 650b up to 47mm.

Unidirectional Carbon Fiber Frame

The Headlands has a unidirectional carbon fiber frame designed to meet the demands of modern gravel and endurance riders and racers with large tire clearance, a 142x12mm thru-axle, and multiple frame eyelets for customized hydration and frame bag needs.

Tire Clearance

The Headlands was designed with clearance for up to 700Cx45 or 650Bx50 tires to handle even the roughest “roads.”

Internal Dropper Compatibility

The Headlands features a seattube port for internal dropper routing, with the Headlands 2 coming stock with a 105mm/85mm dropper post.

Removable Seatstay Brace

The removable seat stay brace makes it super easy to add fenders for foul weather riding and commuting, while maintaining a clean smooth look when you don’t need the coverage.
