Expirience with the Marin Pine Mountain 2

Ludwig Döhl The Pine Mountain 2 is a dream made of steel with numerous options for attaching kit for bikepacking. The geometry is moderate and makes for a balanced handling. On long tours, the comfortable seating position ensures a relaxed back. The way to the summit is not one of the strengths of this bike. Trail lovers should nevertheless be convinced by this argument: in the downhill, the coherent geometry ensures you´ll have a wide smile in your face. We like: 5 years warranty on the frame!
