With a steel frame, 29 in. wheels and a single-speed drivetrain, the Hamilton 29er from Marin offers a versatile ride with mountain bike agility and smooth, speedy rolling around town.

29 in. wheels decrease the ''angle of attack,'' allowing you to roll over obstacles with greater ease; they also naturally increase forward momentum
Frame's front triangle is made of double-butted steel for strength and vertical flex; a flexible frame is forgiving on city roads
Seatstays and chainstays are designed for vertical stiffness, enhancing acceleration and climbing power
Mountain bike-style frame geometry weaves in and out of city traffic like a snake through dry terrain
Single-speed gearing means fewer parts and less maintenance on your part; flip-flop hub lets you run it as a fixie or with a freehub
Alloy linear-pull brakes and 3-finger levers provide controlled and reliable deceleration
Wheelset features durable, lightweight rims and smooth-rolling, double-sealed hubs; narrow, puncture-resistant 29 in. tires minimize road resistance
WTB Speed V SE saddle is ergonomically designed to prevent riding discomfort and numbness; streamlined design lets you shift weight quickly
Composite platform pedals with alloy cages enhance your pedaling efficiency
Specs are subject to change

After its initial break-in period you might notice your bicycle performing less responsively than the day you brought it home. Not to worry, this is typical of all new bicycles and simply reflects that cables have stretched or their housings have seated themselves into final position. To keep running at peak performance, all REI bicycles come with a FREE warranty tune-up, which should be accomplished between the first 100-200 miles of riding or after the first two months if you're accumulating miles less quickly. Contact your nearest REI bike shop for details and an appointment for this important service.

Imported.

Comments about Marin Hamilton 29er Bike - 2009:

Excellent Bicycle! The gearing actually came with a 33T crank and 15/20T rear sprockets. The 15t is perfect for commuting and the 20t is great for Mountain Biking. I have ridden this bike for a year (even in 6'' of snow), all year round and it has been great. The only things that could be better are the brakes which I am frequently adjusting.
