Marin’s Kentfield 3 - The People’s Bike

Bicycles For The Proletariat! :)

The new Kentfield 3 from Marin Bikes isn’t a status symbol. It’s not built for flex culture or carbon-fiber peacocking. It’s built for the proletariat, people like you that need a bike that works Monday to Friday, not just Sunday afternoon.

This is transportation for workers, students, parents, and anyone who believes mobility should serve the many, not the few. The Kentfield 3 doesn’t dazzle you with unnecessary complexity. It gives you what matters: A durable and lightweight aluminum frame, an upright position that lets you see the world as it is, wide tires that stay calm and carry on on rough pavement and gravel roads, and a simple 1x drivetrain that doesn’t require indentured servitude. The hydraulic disc brakes work in the rain, in the slush, in the real world that doesn’t look anything like bike industry marketing hype.

And the utility is not an afterthought. It’s the point. Rack and fender mounts are there because groceries exist. Because weather exists. Because life exists. The gearing assumes you might carry something heavier than your ego. The geometry assumes you want to look up at traffic, not fold yourself into an aerodynamic question mark.

In an industry often obsessed with marginal gains and premium upgrades, the Kentfield 3 makes a quieter, more radical claim: Transportation should be accessible. Quality should be durable. A bike can be dignified without being decadent.

It’s not spectacle. It’s infrastructure on two wheels.

If you see bikes as tools of everyday freedom and not toys for the affluent, Marin’s new Kentfield 3 just might be the people’s bike for you.
