Marlin 6 Gen 3

The Marlin 6 is the perfect ride for progressing your skills on the trails. Its updated, slacker frame geometry makes descents easier to control, while a suspension fork helps smooth out bumpy terrain. Integrated rack and kickstand mounts make it easy to set up for weekday commuting or everyday errands.

Technology

Will my bike have a curved top tube? - Smaller frames have a top tube that dips down as it approaches the seat tube. This design makes for a lower standover height, which is good for shorter riders because it allows them to straddle their bike more easily. Larger frame sizes have a straight top tube because taller riders with longer legs typically don’t have the same issues with standover height.
