The Walkthrough

Top curved tube

Top curved tube

The bike has a lower standover height on smaller bike frames because the top tube slopes downward close to the seat. For shorter riders, this is fantastic news because it makes getting on and off the bike more comfortable and easy. Since taller riders typically don't require that additional clearance, larger frames typically have a straight top tube instead.

 
Fit for every rider

Fit for every rider

The Marlin is available in seven frame sizes, so there’s a fit for just about every rider tall or short. Thanks to Smart Wheel Size, you’ll get the fastest and most efficient wheel size for your frame. And if you’re on the smaller side, you’re covered too. Those sizes come with short-reach brake levers and narrower handlebars to make sure everything feels comfortable and easy to control.

 
High technology, high value

High technology, high value

The Marlin doesn’t just ride well it looks sharp too. It’s loaded with thoughtful features you’d usually only see on higher-end bikes, like a sleek frame with internal routing for the shift cables and brake hoses. That not only gives it a clean, modern look, but also helps protect the cables from dirt and weather, so they last longer and stay running smooth.
