Marin has picked up where they left off with the Wolf Ridge, introducing the all-new Mount Vision. While the Wolf Ridge was intended to be a do all quiver killer of sorts, the Mount Vision is more focused on big mountain/enduro riding. Based around 150mm of travel and 27.5 wheels the Mount Vision is sure to turn your local track into a playground.

“We’ve built upon what we learned with the extraordinary Wolf Ridge to create what we feel is the best and most unique trail bike that the market has ever seen,” says Matthew Cipes, Mountain Bike Product Manager at Marin. “With leading-edge geometry and a playful, poppy attitude, we are confident that the Mount Vision will even surpass the level of excitement that the Wolf Ridge achieved.”

Key frame highlights:

•Full carbon fiber front and rear frame members

•Naild patent-pending R3AC–2 Play rear frame member

•Rider fit and kinematics developed with biometric data to localize weight on each size

•Two kinematic profiles, one for S/M frames, another for L/XL frames
