The Team Marin 1 is built with the privateer XC racer in mind, ready for evening hot laps and weekend race days. Built around Marin’s lightweight series 4 6061 aluminium frame 29er wheels, flat mount rear brake and internal cable routing. There is also routing ready for an internal dropper post. Old school looks meet new school XC geometry, which provides a bike with lively and fun on the trails, with improved handling on technical descents, whilst still being able to hold it’s own on the cross country race circuit. Fitted out with a RockShox Judy Silver TK 120mm travel font fork, a Shimano Deore 12 speed drivetrain and Shimano hydraulic disc brakes makes an ideal setup for a rider looking to crack into the world of XC racing without paying a premium price, or someone who wants an affordable, fun and efficient hardtail ready for anything the trails can throw at it.
