Description
Marlin 6 is the perfect ride for progressing your skills on the trails. Its updated slacker frame
geometry makes it easier to control on descents while the upgraded suspension fork takes the edge
off bumpy trails. Integrated rack and kickstand mounts make it easy to add accessories to this
versatile steed.
