This bike will take on any trail you’re brave enough to throw it down. A few minor spec changes would really elevate its performance
Spec impressive considering price
Good geometry
Capable at speed
Better-spec brake levers would help add more confidence
Bottle won’t fit on smaller frame sizes despite mounts being included

Marin has stepped up its Alpine Trail bikes in some big ways, including adding a carbon version that could very well be one of the best bang-for-your-buck

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
