The Headlands 3 is the top-spec version of Marin's carbon gravel and adventure bike, built to be fast, confidence-inspiring and comfortable on every surface. Whether it's fully loaded bikepacking, quick and light off-road adventures, gravel or cyclocross racing, or simply exploring your favourite tracks and trails, it's ready for it.

The unidirectional carbon frame uses Marin's Beyond Road platform, with mountain bike-inspired geometry, room for 700 x 50mm tyres, a UDH dropout, Bear Box downtube storage and mounts for mudguards and a rear carrier. The full carbon fork keeps weight down and adds precision.

The build is the best in the Headlands range. SRAM's Rival XPLR AXS wireless 13-speed drivetrain pairs a single 40T chainring with a 10-46T cassette for tight gear steps and plenty of range, SRAM Rival hydraulic brakes provide strong, controllable stopping, and a TranzX dropper adds confidence on rough descents. It all rolls on a stiff, light Novatec G24 carbon wheelset with tubeless-compatible Vee Tire Co. QuikStyk tyres.
