Expirience with the Marin EL ROY

Marin EL ROY Review Probably the most extravagant trail hardtail imaginable. The EL ROY is a steel frame fan's dream. The combination of a 0 degree head tube angle and a long wheelbase calms down the handling of the Marin Hardtail, even if you ride fast. The seating position can be described neither as sporty nor as comfortable. It has a moderate character. Looking at only the shifting system of the rest of the bikes you have to say that other manufacturers in the price range under 3000 Eurouse higher quality components. For trail lovers, one point dominates: the Marin scores in the decent with an extremely good geometry, a high-quality suspension and grippy tires. The guarantee of 5 years proves that Marin is behind its products.
