Gravel bikes are just mountain bikes from the ‘90s! We’ve heard this many times, and it looks like Marin has gone with that analogy with the DSX FS. Gravel is a wide-ranging genre that is morphing rapidly filling all of those gaps between road and MTB and I enjoy Marin’s take on things with this bike. It’s a lot of fun to ride because it feels relatively light and nimble, and can accommodate up to 2.1in knobby tyres meaning it’s not just restricted to hardpacked gravel tracks either.

A fun and entertaining machine that won’t break the bank, but also a rough ride and a short reach.
Dedicated flat-bar frame design, very generous tire clearance, mostly smart spec, wallet-friendly pricing.
Reach could still be longer, non-tubeless tires and rims, rough ride quality.
