Value can be innovative. While everyone was arguing about whether 32 inch wheels are a good idea, @marinbikes released the TAM 1, and I have to say it’s pretty cool to see a bike that’s this capable for this price. When we created Advent MX, this is exactly the kind of bike we were envisioning it on: something efficient but shreddy that’s meant to be ridden hard. If our components help bike brands make more bikes with this kind of price to performance ratio, then mission accomplished.
Stoked to officially team up with Marin Bikes! Feeling incredibly honored and excited for what’s coming 🔥
