What a sick video!! I learned so much from being part of this. Thanks Marin
Well? Was it Marin or Marin?
Thank *you* for being part of Marin, Matt.
Dope vid you’re a legend Matt
@@marin_bikes when we can expect new Alpine Trail ?
Im planing to buy 2, for me and my bro.
I'm still looking for that muriwoods all black one, 2020 hard to find around here, I would trade all mine in to get one, it's a beauty.
I'm from Mexico, I bought a San Quentin 1 and honestly, it has been the best experience riding a bike
Excellent to hear, we hope it keeps bringing you fun well into the future.
Still riding my 1994 Bear Valley SE. Thanks Marin!
Sweet!
I drove 4 hours to grab my Bobcat Trail 5. The quality, bang for the buck, is stellar compared to other "big" companies. And after watching this, I'm more impressed with my choice.
Right on! Thanks for going out of the way to become a Marin rider. We certainly appreciate it!
i just purchased the marin rift zone 3 :) proud to be part of the marin family.
`Made For Fun` you know ...
Indeed, and what a great ride. We hope you love it!
Just beautiful video and story, great passion for sport and bikes, thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice one Matt and Marin 😊😊😊
Happy Riding everyone 👍🏽
Merry Christmas 🎄✌🏼🎄
My '96 Pine Mountain was one of the most fun bikes I've owned. With 26x1.9 tires, no suspension and 560 mm handlebars every trail was a challenge. But that bike was so well balanced that you still felt confident on it. Great memories!
Was it also one of your first MTBs? Those early MTBs can really leave an imprint.
Love my Marin Kentfield 2. I ride it all over the Olympic Peninsula in WA. Paved, gravel, single track, it does it all. Most comfortable bike I have ever owned.
That's what we love to hear
Matt Jones! The homie is doin it! Love seeing MJ branch out! Cool content from Marin.
Matt Jones,Always love Marin Bikes it's Sick
From México i just buy My first Marín 1 San Quintín i'm very happy whit it very Nice ride and the bike is amazing and i ride a specialized for a 10 years but this is a fantastic bike 10 in My score gracias Marín .
The best team and awsome fun bikes that was Made For Fun' love the bikes you guys make they are all awsome' and absolute LEGENDS !
We love doing what we do.
i have to say marin bikes are such an underrated bike company unlike specialized, canyon, santa cruz and etc. My dream bike i would love to get is Marin idc what people say but in my opinion their bikes are the best there is no way i could describe it put it into words
Thanks Gloria! We're having fun, making great bikes for people like yourself.
I LOVE my hawk hill junior and Alcatraz they are AWESOME bikes I love them
I've had 3 Marin bikes. 1992 Muirwoods, black and fluro yellow. 1995 Pallisades Trail, Purple and Gray. Unfortunately both were stolen. I then went for a Gary Fisher until I've now switched back to a Marin. 2020 Bolinas Ridge, Blue and Orange 29nr! I've never had a big budget but these $600 Hardtails are amazing! I even bought some 1992 Retro Fork Decals in Orange as a nod to my first Marin.
Sorry to hear of your early bikes being stolen, but welcome back to the family! It's pretty amazing how good a bike you can get for not a whole lot of money these days. Enjoy the ride!
I've just bought Marin Bobcat Trail 3, and already took the first ride. This bike is just perfect entry MTB bike. Thank you guys for making such a great bike.
Great to hear!
Super cool video, great to see Matt riding our local trails. 🤙🏻
It was a blast having Matt out in NorCal over the summer.
Awesome video. I love Marin Bikes. I have a Four Corners and I just bought a Pine Mountain.
Thanks David. Awesome fleet!
I am from Kitchener Ontario Canada and I have been riding mountain bikes for 19 years and I've never had a better vibe with any other bike. From my first GT Allteraira Ali way through the gambit ofbiks KONA Gary Fisher and Davinci but overall hands down Marin blows the spokes off all the others thank you and your team for your contrabution to the sport!!!
Right on!
Love this vid! I'm from the Bay and own a '92 Eldridge Grade and love it!
Excellent, and thanks for the props!
Nice video from Marin and very informative! Just bought my Marin Bobcat Trail 5, so far lovin it.
Excellent! Welcome to the Marin family.
Cool vid! Just getting back into riding and picked up a Bobcat Trail 3 today. Love it!
Awesome - great to have you back
Loved the video. I bought a nail trail back in 2017 and it is seriously the best hard tail bike I've ridden. So much so that I bought a 2020 hawk hill recently and decided to keep the nail trail, as a back up, and to have the luxury of switching it up. Keep up the good work guys!!
That's awesome, Mike. Thanks for your support, and keep it fun!
the fact that matt jones has ridden the jump line that I frequent it just so cool
Awesome video! Sick to see everyone loving their Marin's in the comments. Loving my Alpine Trail 7!
I bought a Marin Rocky Ridge 7.4 hardtail in 2014. Has been an extremely fun bike to ride here locally in CA. Still going strong. Keep it up guys 🤘🏼
Excellent!
I just became a MARIN groupie lol..love the video guys and beautiful bikes!
Excellent, welcome to the family!
Still running a bear valley limited edition and pine mountain both from the 90's. Great bikes.
Excellent, and we love coming across riders on vintage steeds.
Im from Argentina. Im working and saving all my money so i can buy my first full suspencion. Im so excited. I really like how you guys work and your history. Thanks
Excellent, thanks for the props. Hope you enjoy that new mountain bike.
@@marin_bikes im going to buy it in wildshop in mendoza. There is some merch that comes with the bike?
@@tomascolomer718 what kind of bike do you have now ?
@@lander4092 i finnaly got a marin Hawk hill 2 2020. I hope this year i can reach alpine trail.
@@tomascolomer718 little by little bro
Glad to have one of these bikes didn't know the history till now
Started with a rift zone 1 just got the alpine trail 8 love your bikes made for fun is very accurate
Awesome!
I LOVE my 2018 Marin Hawk Hill 1 sooooo goood!
Just bought my first Marin for my wife....this is now my brand.
Welcome to the
family!
Yeah, totally stoked because I just purchased a 20 Marin Mount Vision 8 here in New Jersey. I had a lot of bikes to choose from but after seeing the culture of the company and the passion from your team, the decision to buy Marin was a no brainer. Also, seeing Kyle Werner sporting the line and putting out amazing How-To videos clinched it for me.
Excellent, welcome to Marin!
Great vid.! Love Marin.! Greetings from Ecuador.! MarinEc
Cool video!
Great video! Just picked up a Marin Muirwoods and a Marin Larkspur to do some all-road riding up here in Western Washington. Your brand is close to my roots as I grew up in San Ramon. It's great to have a Marin in the stable. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the kind words, Adrian! And thanks for being a Marin rider.
Well done and shared!
Thanks Peter!
Best transition (the one from the vintage bikes to Matt on the modern Mount Vision) in a video that I’ve seen! Matt is definitely my favorite rider ever and my biggest inspiration for shredding the trails. I loved every bit of this video,well done Marin Bikes🤙
Thanks! It was fun creating this video, and we had the perfect spot of trail for the transition.
I have my Nail Trail 6. It`s definetaly made 4 fun! :) It`s good to be a part of Marin family :D
Thanks for being part of the family! Happy trails!
The Marin family looks Solid 😉🙌🏻 So happy Marin are Going Strong and Still Makes One of the World's Most Beautiful and Leading Mountain bikes brands ... Keep up the Excellent work 😁👌🏻 Marin 4Ever💪😎
Thank you!
Nice Vid... I will be buying Marin bikes from now on.
Excellent! Thanks for the feedback, and we hope to see you out on the trail.
I still get a buzz when I roll my 2008 mount vision out onto the trail. Just love it 👍💪
Had an Eldridge Grade before that which was awesome too.
Excellent!
Cool video! Dont own a Marin bike, but I see ya El Roy, I see ya!
I got my bolinas ridge 1 two years ago I love it awesome bike 🚲 thanks Marin From Avenal California
Glad to hear that you love your bike. Keep it fun!
@@marin_bikes yup I’m gonna get the alpine trail next
@@lander4092 Collect them all!
I just got my San Quentin 1 and love it!
I love my Marin Rift Zone! This summer I may have the opportunity to ride up in Marin County.
Right on, thanks for the support, and we hope that you make it out this way.
I JUST LOVE MARIN BIKES MADLY. I HAVE ONE AND I HAVE ALREADY RODE 35,000 PLUS KILOMETERS ON IT WITHIN THREE YEARS. I REALLY WISH TO OWE ONE MORE MARIN BIKE ONE DAY. I M THANKFUL TO GOD FOR MY MARIN
Great video. Love my Hawk Hill
The Hawk Hill is where "Made For Fun" really came to life.
Looks like such a cool company to work for. Interesting about the bike names. Just looked up where Rock Springs is in Marin, now I need go ride there with my Rock Springs haha.
What a great company! Don’t see my self switching bike brands any time soon
Excellent. We hope we have the bike that ticks all the boxes the next time you are shopping for a bike. Cheers!
I have my Bobcat Trail 3 so far so good..
That’s awesome! Wish I’d have one.
4:57 "You can't take it with you when you go, but man while you're goin' have some fun"
That's a motto for life if I've ever heard one. I LOVE my Marin Hawk Hill. This company made me a believer. Anything I throw at this MTB it handles. Of course I've upgraded a few parts here and there but who doesn't? I'll ride Marin for life.
Gravy is a legend, chuck full of those little nuggets. Glad to hear that you love your Hawk Hill - it's the model that birthed our Made For Fun ethos. Enjoy!
Very good, keep it up👍
Thank you!
just yesterday I got my bobcat trail 4 2020, so glad that I choose this brand awesome!!
That's excellent, and we hope that it brings you years of fun.
I got my Marin Bolinas Ridge 1 and it's awesome! Thanks Marin!
I am also planning to buy the same bike...
Will it be ideal for small jumps and bumpy roads ?
I bought a Kentfield 2 on Saturday, very impressive for 'just a regular bike' as some would call it. I didn't know about this brand, but my local shop is a dealer and this model checked all the boxes for me. Now that I know more about your company, I like my bike even more.
Excellent! Welcome to the Marin family. Hope your new Kentfield 2 delivers years and years of fun.
How are you getting on with the Kentfield? been looking at buying one 🙌🏼
@@TasteBudJunkie I'm a huge fan. I don't ride that often, but it is perfect for my style... which is riding the local trail for an hour or so. Usually, I'm on pavement, but sometimes on gravel. Many years ago I'd bike to work, this would have been THE perfect commuter bike. The only 'changes' I made were adding a clamp for my phone, a small under-the-seat bag, and a bottle holder. It's a very pleasant ride, with a very palatable price tag, no regrets.
Happy with my Fairfax 1! really great bike! hello from Singapore 🇸🇬
Excellent! We hope you are loving your bike.
@@marin_bikes of course! it looks very sleek in all black!
Im from the bay area and enjoying riding my 2021 Marin Hawk Hill 2!!!
Awesome, welcome to the family. Hope to see you out on the trails sometime soon!
@@marin_bikes I have a question, would a 29er wheels and tires will fit on my 2021 Marin Haw Hill 2? And would you recommend it? Thanks 🙏
@@rexsarmiento8744 Hello - no, as there is not enough clearance for the 29" wheels, which re 1.5" larger in diameter. Our Rift Zone 29 line is essentially the 29" wheel version of the Hawk Hill (aka Rift Zone 27.5). Cheers.
The very first thing I asked to do when I first visited my cousins in Berkley, SF was to go and ride Mt Tamalpais and the Redwood Forest in Marin, this was in 1994 after seeing the pictures in MTBUK magazine with the title, Our Testing Ground and safe to say, I felt like Mint Sauce :).
Over the years I rode a Muir Woods, Bear Valley and was lucky enough to own a titanium frame, back then it was a £1500 bike :)..
That's excellent, James! Thank you for being a longtime fan.
Just ordered my first ever marin bike today .
Awesome, what are you getting?
@@marin_bikes hawk hill , ( rift zone 2 ) black and blue , gotta wait until July tho : (
@@James-hh1lq Yeah, demand is far outstripping supply in these COVID times, and not only for Marin, but for the entire industry.
@@marin_bikes yes definitely. Looking forward to hitting some trails on it tho over here in wales uk .
@@James-hh1lq Ooh, a fantastic place to ride.
Great video! It shows the company is built on good vibes
The bossman has two rules when hiring - no egos, no a-holes. It works :)
Marin Bikes that’s a great strategy
loved my Fairfax, thinking of getting the Presidio 2 !
Excellent!
Got a 2015 Marin rift zone 9 and I love it
Excellent! Those IsoTrac bikes were pretty fun!
There are coincidences & then there are marin level coincidences 😉
Both the ceo & brand ambassador/sponsored rider are Matt 😂👏❤️
Proud marin nail trail 7 owner here ✌️✌️✌️
I live in Russia and I have Marin for 10 years, he still serves me
Thank you
all your bikes you made is so cool and resistent and CHEAP in japanese money (cuz i live in japan ):) thanks marin for the bikes . keep the good and hard work .
Our Japanese division also makes some really cool and unique models that are not offered globally. We love what they do back in the Land of the Rising Sun.
Nice 👍 🇲🇾
When I worked for REI I sold a fair share of Marin bikes, hell I still have a few Marin stickers on my bike rack and gear. Being a Bay Area native your brand has always called to me.
Thanks for your support over the years, Trevor!
I’m currently thinking about buying a Marin. Never heard of them before but they seem pretty legit!!
Thanks ML! Hope you can join the Marin family.
Proud Marin bike owner
Awesome video! I love my Marin, San Quintin 2!! Hoping to get a full sus in the very near future!! Will there be any demo dates out over on the east coast? Specifically Virginia 😁😁 keep up the great work!
great video !
Thank you!
Great edit guys
Thank you! It was a super fun project.
I wish I have one bike from Main especially El Roy and me and this bike is the same age i come to life in 1986 also Marin 😍
I've been waiting for my San Quentin 2 for almost 2 months now, it's summer time I know it's a bad time to get a new bike... But great bike company, thx guys👍
The industry overall has seen an unprecedented run on bikes in these COVID times, and the demand has caught everyone off guard. Wish we could get you your new bike right now, but hope that you understand the situation.
@@marin_bikes Yes of course I understand and you are absolutely right I agree with you 100% I'm riding a rift 2 at the moment because my hardtail is MIA, It's still fun but I have way more fun on a hardtail than I do on a full suspension, that's just me😁.. But no matter what I'm still going to wait for the San Quentin to arrive. Thx👍
Takin my new San Rafael out on nice, inoffensive paved trails tomorrow, but damn does mountain riding look fun as hell. I have a feeling I'll be throwing some more money at you guys when I get around to it. Preferably when I don't live in the middle of the Great Plains.
As long as you are having fun on whatever you ride we are happy ;)
Sooo good
Thank you!
I love my Marin Bike 🚲 😎
Excellent, thanks for your support!
Just purchased a TeamMarin 2. Very versatile and capable bike.
Hopefully fun too!
Absolutely!!
love very much my MARIN NICASIO 2- 2019
It's a very sweet bike! #ridecrmo
Picked up a Marin Pioneer Trail. Don't know anything about off road biking, but this is one fun off road bike. Even in the soft tread. Fun over rollers.
Welcome to the family!
@@marin_bikes Advice? Mine has a Spinner Grind fork (brass coloured bridge) with an knurled adjustment cap on the LHS strut that can be turned. Can you explain how this functions? Would appreciate. Thanks!
@@filmic1 That's most likely a preload knob, which will make the suspension fork feel firmer if you crank it down.
Classic Video from a Classic Company - top work!
Thanks Tim! Hope you are loving your X11!
Got Stinson 2 today and I'm in 💙 !
Excellent! We hope it gives you years and years of smiles.
@@marin_bikes I got the bike for Rehab , gonna bring me back to life.
@@denniscarsner Right on! Happy trails!
❤
wow this is really neat matt jones at my local bike park stafford lake, you guys should make a bike called stafford lake maybe a fourcross bike since there used to be a slolom course there.
Think I need a retro bike myself
Will the new 2021 Marin San Quentin 2stay the same price? Already my number 1 now since it now has the dropper.
Gravy said it best I reckon. ;-)
He's a legend
Indonesian love marin bike
We love Indonesia
I love my Pine mountain 1
Nice!
Awesome video, is the bike with the red fork and basket a modified four corners?
Yes it is, good eye!
Hallo, from Germany!
Hallo!
Just bought a Marin foray wife. She fell in love the Marin bike we rented yesterday. She rode 29 miles on the Marin saddle and decided no longer to use female oriented saddles.
Unfortunately not all saddles work for all people. However there is a huge selection available in aftermarket. Most good dealers will have some sort of tool to help advise the best saddle should the stock one not be ideal
Dang. This makes me want to buy a Marin
Jesse Richardson that’s literally the point of the video
We're here when you are ready!
@@georgelane1377 Thanks Captain.
Just got a SQ2. Love the bike but the paint has started chipping just a month old. Paint around the brake mount has cracked and chipping away. 😥
Ciao! I own a marin gestalt x11 2019. After some occasion of long rides and bikepacking, with my age now at 50,i thought it might good if I could change the crank to a 2by setup. However, I'm not sure if it's possible since the lower part of the seat tube is not round. Any suggestions about it? Thank you
Hello Arthur - the X11 of that era is 1x only. You can chat with your local bike shop about different gearing options, including running a smaller front chainring or converting to a 1x12 with a lower low gear. Hope this helps!
Hi, I am a happy owner of Marin Nicasio 2 from Indonesia. Right now I am preordering Headlands 2 :) I am interested in the front rack used on Aaron Abrams bike, what brand and type is that ? Thanks !
Awesome on the Nicasio 2; it's such a fun bike (as is the Headlands). The rack that is on Aaron's bike was from one of our vendors, but has been out of production for several years.
