Marin Alpine Trail XR is a budget-friendly mountain bike that packs some serious muscle, making it an extremely capable 1550/160mm option.

Marin's big travel 29er enduro bike has come out swinging for 2021 with a new frame that features future-forward geometry and high-speed intentions. To see just how capable it is given the tantalising price point, we've got the value-packed Marin Alpine Trail 7 in for test.

WIth moderate, supportive travel, aggressive geometry and even more aggressive spec, the Alpine Trail Carbon is here to party ... at $4,100!
Amazing value
Modern, aggressive geometry
High-end spec where it counts and not where it doesn't
Comfortable climbing geometry
Moderate travel may be overwhelmed by aggressive spec and geo
Fox 38 fork may be overkill for some riders
Not a fast climber

The Marin Alpine Trail Carbon arrives with progressive geometry mimicking its aluminium counterpart; two models on offer.

You’ll want to do lap after lap on this capable, fast trail bike.

Modern numbers, sharp handling, lots of suspension travel and 29-inch wheels for under $3,000.
Good climber for a 33-pound, 150mm bike
Solid, we-can-do-this handling
Contemporary geometry
Tires miss the mark
Restricted seatpost insertion depth

Marin's high-value, high-speed long-travel 29er, the Alpine Trail 8, doesn't do every little thing perfectly. Just most little things.

Do you ever wonder why the suspension kinematics of lower-priced bikes doesn't match the effort going into higher priced platforms....
