The press have been raving about the all-new Marin Alpine Trail range, and we think that must be close to the perfect bikes for Enduro riding in Scotland. This is the carbon framed version, with progressive geometry, 29er wheels and 160/150mm long travel, burly suspension to suit our terrain.
Suspension is the latest Fox 38 and DPX2, there are guides and base settings for different rider weights here on the Marin site.
Marin have specced a threaded BB for ease of maintenance, and a Shimano drivetrain and groupset are hassle-free and easy to keep working sweetly. SLX 4 pot brakes are more than capable enough of slowing things down and the front end is finished with a Deity stem and handlebar.
There aren't many bikes that have a parts list as good as this out-of-the-box, especially not at this sort of price, but if there's anything you'd like to change on your new bike get in touch.
