Steel Changes Everything
Build the gravel bike you've always wanted with the Marin Nicasio 2 2026 Gravel Bike Frameset. Combining classic steel styling with modern gravel performance, the Nicasio 2 provides the perfect blank canvas for creating a versatile, capable and beautifully distinctive bike.
At its heart is an all-new SteezyR double-butted CrMo steel frame, delivering the comfortable ride quality and timeless character that steel is renowned for, while Marin's Beyond Road Geometry provides a confident, balanced platform for everything from daily commuting and road riding to gravel adventures and bikepacking.
The Nicasio 2 frameset pairs its steel frame with a full carbon fork, helping to keep the front end responsive while reducing unnecessary weight. A tapered head tube and integrated headset further enhance front-end stiffness and precise handling, while thru-axles and disc brake mounts provide modern braking performance and dependable wheel security across demanding terrain.
Practicality is built in, too. Rack and full-fender mounts give you the flexibility to configure the Nicasio for commuting, touring, bikepacking or all-weather riding. There's even a hidden kickstand mount, making it easy to create a practical everyday bike when required.
Finished in a stylish Green, the Marin Nicasio 2 is more than just a frameset – it's the starting point for a bike built entirely around you. Choose your own components, gearing, wheels and finishing kit, and create a gravel bike that's uniquely yours.
