The Marin TAM 2 takes everything that makes the TAM platform so good—speed, efficiency and modern trail capability—and adds a serious upgrade in suspension and components. If the TAM 1 is the gateway into down-country riding, the TAM 2 is where things start to get properly dialled.
This is a bike built for riders who want XC pace with trail bike confidence—and better kit to push harder.
The TAM 2 sits right in the sweet spot of Marin’s lineup, offering premium performance without premium price tag. With Fox suspension front and rear, Shimano Deore 12-speed and powerful 4-piston brakes, it’s widely considered one of the best value builds in the range.
Like the rest of the TAM lineup, it’s built around a modern 120mm rear / 130mm front travel platform, combining efficient pedalling with proper trail capability
