Expirience with the Marin WILDCAT TRAIL 2

Marin WILDCAT TRAIL 2 Review You wont be able to hide that smile on your face when riding the Marin WILDCAT TRAIL 2 in light terrain. 438 mm short chainstays and a moderate reach make the handling pleasantly playful. The seating position does not manage to be too athletic, nor too upright. It´s moderate character is likely to suite the vast majority of bikers. The Racebike von Marin has still a ace up its sleeve. When it goes down the hill, the absolutely coherent geometry always makes you want to come back for more. We like: 5 years warranty on the frame!
