Cycling Tips
2020 Marin Gestalt X10 gravel bike review: The wheelie machine - CyclingTips

Apr 2020 · Caley Fretz

The Marin Gestalt X10 is a mountain biker’s gravel bike. It’s fun and flickable, aware that a bit of instability can be enjoyable, and designed for a rider whose range of terrain is almost wide enough to necessitate flat bars and suspension. That makes it something of a love-it or hate-it bike. It’s not traditional. […]

Highs
  • Loves to wheelie, fun when it gets in over its head on technical trail.

Lows
  • Brakes are terrible, 1x only could be an issue for some.

Marin Gestalt gravel bike review

Jul 2019

The Marin Gestalt is the least expensive bike in the brand's ‘beyond road’ line up. The gravel and adventure bike is slightly portly and only has an alloy fork but it’s surprisingly agile to ride with a good turn of speed. You will have to give serious thought to spending the extra dollar on the Gestalt 1 or 2 though as the base model Gestalt is probably best left on the pavement.
