The ride, not just the specs

Where the trail begins.

Marlin is the mountain bike we hand to riders getting into trails. It's simple, tough, and confidence-inspiring, so you can focus on having fun.

Ride it on your local singletrack, the greenway, or anywhere in between.

    A better way to produce aluminum

    Starting in 2024, we began removing high-emission aluminum from our manufacturing and replacing it with low-emission aluminum made with renewable energy. By October 2025, nearly every alloy bike we make - this one included - had made the switch, driving a major drop in our footprint.
