LONG DISTANCE MIXED SURFACE COMMUTING
GRAVEL RIDING
The Marin DSX is everything you want from a modern, flat-bar gravel bike.
Zippy aluminum frames, compliant forks, heaps of tire clearance, low standover, dropper post compatibility and a whole load of options for bags and fenders. Taking inspiration from the Gestalt X drop bar line, we made the DSX to feel like an MTB but still cut it on all of those adventures that would normally demand curly bars.
Perfect for racking up road miles, daily grinds to work, multi-day epics and flowy singletrack, the DSX is the perfect modern gravel bike for riders that prefer their bars flat.
The DSX comes stock with 700x45mm tires, with room for 700x50mm rubber.
Dropper posts are quickly becoming standard fare for gravel racers and riders that spend significant time on rough surfaces, and the DSX features internal dropper post routing for easy upgrades.
ADVENTURE ON AND OFF-ROAD RIDING
Hopping up to a higher-spec Series 3 aluminum frame, the Marin DSX 1 has a whole heap of upgrades over the base spec version. Bolt-thru axles add stiffness and a carbon fork drops the weight and adds even more mounting points for bikepacking bags. There’s also an 11-speed 1X Shimano Deore drivetrain, WTB Riddler tires, Tektro hydraulic brakes and plenty of reliable Marin components.
