Marin County California is regarded as the birthplace of mountain biking. With niche communities back then shaping what it is today, and with Marin Bikes' inception coming shortly after, the company has deep roots in the sport and now offers many styles of bikes to suit off-roaders and commuters alike.
The DSX is the mountain biker's gravel bike with familiar hand positioning, reliable 1x drivetrains, large tyre clearance, and dropper post routing for better off road control, and on road descending stability.
