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.
Trail Mountain Biking
The Marin Wildcat Trail mountain bike collection is made for Marin's female riders, suiting everyone from for-the-fun-of-it, recreational explorers to those looking to go further and faster on the off-road trails. Super fun, super value and super well-specced, the Wildcat Trail is the perfect gateway bike into mountain biking, made 100% for female riders.
Our top-end Wildcat, the Wildcat Trail 3 really blurs the line into ‘proper’ mountain biking. We’ve specced the Wildcat Trail 3 to be super capable on the trails while still offering kick-ass value and the perfect fit for female riders that don’t quite need a full-gas MTB.
The Wildcat Trail 3 gets an upgraded women’s-specific Series 2 aluminum frame with low standover and is built around 27.5” wheels. There’s an upgraded SR/Suntour 120mm suspension fork, a microSHIFT 1x9 drivetrain, powerful hydraulic disc brakes and grippy 2.25” MTB tires. And, of course, a whole stack of women’s specific kit to guarantee a super-comfortable ride.
Key Upgrades From The Wildcat Trail 2
- Series 2 aluminum frame w/double butted tubing & internal cable routing
- SR/Suntour XCM HLO fork w/120mm travel & hydraulic lockout
