The Marin Fairfax E ST is an electric bike that rides just like a traditional hybrid—only better. Weighing in at just 42 lbs, it’s one of the lightest e-bikes in its class, making it easy to maneuver and transport. Built on the award-winning Fairfax hybrid platform, this bike retains the smooth, responsive feel that has made it Wirecutter’s "Best Hybrid Bike" for four years running.
Unlike many e-bikes that feel like mopeds with pedals, the Fairfax E features a torque-sensing hub motor that seamlessly amplifies your pedaling effort, providing a natural and intuitive ride. The hub motor design also reduces drivetrain wear for long-term reliability. With UL certification for safety, mounts for fenders and a rack, and a thoughtful balance of power and performance, the Fairfax E is the perfect choice for riders who want a true bike experience—with just the right amount of electric assist.
Keep in mind that the "ST" version is identical to the standard Fairfax E other than the frame shape and design. It is smaller and easier to step over the main frame. However, it is more difficult to load the "ST" on a bike rack that attaches to the top tube of the bike.
UL 2849 certified.
