Oct 2023
Riders have been asking Marin to release a 29" version of their flagship hardtail, the San Quentin, for years, and they finally did!
Sep 2022
The complete Marin San Quentin 1 (SQ1) hardtail costs about the same amount of money as a top-end RockShox suspension fork and it's a fun choice for the aspiring or casual mountain biker looking for a budget-friendlier gateway rig for Blue-level trails.
