Marin Bikes Cortina T3 CX (2014)

The Cortina CX is a Blue Collar race bike, providing sports car speed, at a muscle car price. The Cortina uses the same T3 carbon frame as the Cortina CX Pro; so you get all the go-fast features and still have money for post ride beverages. Tubeless-ready WTB Frequency i19 rims and TRP Spyre disc brakes complete the parts package, while a SRAM Rival covers drivetrain duties with a twist. A Type 2 XO rear derailleur not only provides precise shifts, but also offers the benefit of a clutch mechanism that increases chain tension– reducing the possibility of a dropped chain and ruined race.
