Marin Fairfax SC 4 Belt Drive

The Marin Fairfax SC 4 Belt drive gives you road bike speed, urban utility and a smooth-running belt-driven, internally-geared 8-speed drivetrain. You can have it all. A lightweight Series 3 alloy frame and fork, hydraulic disc brakes and reflective sidewall, puncture-resistant Schwalbe tires will make the Fairfax SC4 Belt your go-to bike for commuting and other urban adventures.

Series 3 Frames have 3D forged dropouts with integrated post mount disc brake mounts, rear mounted kickstand attachment, and dual eyelets for quick and easy fender and rack mounting.

What are the advantages of the belt drive? The advantages are that it is clean, quiet, light and strong. Carbon Drive never requires any lubrication, and if it gets dirty you can simply hose it off with no worry of rust. Gates Carbon Drive is also lighter and stronger than most chains due to the carbon fiber cords, and users typically get two to three times the lifespan of a chain.

The Fairfax models come equipped with puncture-resistant tires featuring minimal tread for increased control in inclement weather and on rough roads.

The bike itself features a Shimano 27 speed drivetrain with a Deore rear derailleur and Acera rapidfire shifters. The crankset is 28/38/48 teeth which makes for good speed and efficiency. A bonus is the pant guard to keep your trousers clean on the way to work.

In addition to the regenerative braking that the Bionx system provides the HB1 is equipped with Tektro Hydraulic brakes for excellent stopping power.

The alloy wheels are double walled for strength and have Schwable Marathon Green Guard (flat prevention) tires with reflective sidewalls.

The HB1 also has a built-in mount for the ebike kickstand that is included.

The Bionx system

The HB1 comes equipped with the 2016 Bionx 500w 48v D series kit. Assist levels are 35, 75, 150, and 300% of the power that the load sensor senses that you are putting into the pedals.

BionX motors offer you powerful proportional electric assist in any situation, whether it’s a commute across town in the morning, or a weekend ride through the countryside. But did you know they can also act as a generator to help recharge your battery and boost your range?

All BionX systems come with Regenerative Braking, so when you squeeze your bike’s brake lever, energy is sent back to the Li-Ion batteries, helping them recharge. And if you are traveling down a steep hill and want some extra braking, or want a greater workout as you pedal, switch the BionX system into one of the four Generate Mode levels. You’ll feel resistance, and even more energy is returned to the battery pack.

The new distinctive design is noise and vibration free with generate/regenerative braking mode and proven strain gauge technology. The D-series motor is extremely sporty, lightweight and powerful – sticking to the principle, that an ebike has to ride and feel like a bicycle.
