Marin Larkspur 1 - Commuter Build

The Marin Larkspur 1 arrives bare bones. No mudguards, no racks, no kickstand. For a daily commuter carrying a child to childcare in the morning, that’s a starting point, not a finished bike. In this video I walk through why we chose the Larkspur 1, how we built it out for family commuting, and exactly what it cost, bike included. Parts used: • Marin Larkspur 1 - $899.99 • Topeak Rear Rack for Babyseat II - $74.95 • Pelago Alu Commuter Front Rack - $118.49 • BRN Fiandre Front Basket - $34.99 • SKS Bluemels Mudguards 65mm - $40.49 • BBB ConnectKick Kickstand - $31.99 Total: $1,200.90 Long-term review coming once we’ve put some real kilometres on it.
