Early aluminum with an octagonal sort of profile? Weird cantilever brakes with an extra squish thingy? Rides nice so far!

A trip on Bart for starters.
A bike from Marin, seems to have at least a front brake and a front derailleur
And looks like never used
1998 or later aluminium hybrid. That’s when the brakes were introduced. Up until 1996/7 they were steel, but Marin switched to Alu/ti for all their high end frames after that. I can’t find catalogs for those later years to say what year it is exactly. The 1996 Point Reyes is legendary.
You bought the thing, tell us
Cool bike! First thing you should do is get rid of that “Power Modulator” so your front brake can work properly.
A Hybrid of sorts
It looks like a 2001 Marin Point Reyes

Please align your brakepads properly. Not just in terms of rotation, but position too.
