Can this affordable stock hardtail MTB survive the biggest downhill bike jumps and tracks in the UK? Dyfi bike park has huge freeride lines and gaps, and most people take expensive downhill bikes to ride these big hits. But can an out-the-box $959 Marin Hardtail survive the new big jump line and race tracks? Let’s see how long a sub £1000 cheap bike can actually last?

Let’s be honest tho us mere mortals would be dead if we did that
I mean it’s not really budget for most considering it’s still nearly £1000 box fresh
Marin best be paying up for this fine piece of advertising
Inspector Jones has a reason to be on the case today.
But seriously, I'm a big fan of the San Quentin from afar. It's still a bit beyond my budget because I don't have a budget, but it's rad.
i’m waiting for matt to bring the hard tail to hardline
Marin just released the downhill bike, and Mat has to promote the hardtail🤣🤣
Think we all know what we want to see for Hardline next year…
Just fighting for his life on that last trail 😂 so sick, I love hard-core hardtails
well if you dont purposely trash it it should be fine
Not so much the bike as it's the rider
How does this geometry feel compared to the 2022 model? Thanks!
Probably a good way to break in a fresh pair of ankle braces
I bought the sq3, and I love it. Upgraded the fork to a bomber z1.
And 220 mm rear rotor on the back. Ride everything in the park. It's so quiet, chainless. Dominates in the teck.
i love riding hardtails they make the easy trails feel fun and bring a new sense to mountian biking for me
You're mad, Matt; ankles of titanium; absolute freak!
Is this sponsored?
This looks Iike one of those videos "just because you can doesn't mean you should" lol
Hey would whats your opions on the voodoo bizango pro as a starting bike just got a dropper post for it aswell
time to do it again with a Marin San Quentin 20 or 24
Who needs expensive suspension when you can just use the cartilage in your knees for free 😂
