How good are Marin bikes?
my mate had a marin titanium mountain bike a good few years back it was an insurance pay out so he went to the shop and chose that one i did try it out and it felt like a decent bike at the time and it was £1400 back then ,very light and quick it all depends what you want and how deep is your pocket i have a cannondale with electronic lefty etc cost me a bomb but my gary fisher feels better in some ways and not in others like car showrooms you can test drive the latest model etc if only bike shops could do the same but you would have to put the price of the bike down first otherwise you could ride of in the sunset with it all in all marin are decent but check out its competition as well
