Marin DSX 2 Gravel Road Bike
Marin DSX 2 Gravel Road Bike
The Marin DSX is everything we want from a modern, flat-bar gravel bike.
Zippy aluminum frames, carbon forks, heaps of tire clearance, low standover, dropper post compatibility and a whole load of options for bags and fenders. Based around the Gestalt X drop-bar, we made the DSX to feel like an MTB but still cut it on all of those adventures that would normally demand curly bars.
The Marin DSX 2 is built around a Series 3 aluminum frame and a lightweight, carbon fork that’s packed with mounting points for bikepacking gear. There’s also a 12-speed 1X Shimano Deore drivetrain, WTB Riddler tires, Tektro hydraulic brakes and plenty of reliable Marin components.
Key upgrades over the DSX 1:
- Shimano Deore 6100 1x12 drivetrain
- Tektro R285 hydraulic disc brakes
SERIES 3 FRAME
The DSX FS, 2, and 1 feature a butted and formed Series 3 6061 aluminum frame with internal routing, 142x12mm thru-axles, flat mount disc brakes, and rack and fender eyelets.
TIRE CLEARANCE
The DSX comes stock with 700x45mm tires, with room for 29x2.1” knobbies.
DISC BRAKES
The DSX features the latest flat mount disc brake standard for smooth, controlled stopping in all conditions with minimal maintenance.
DROPPER POST ROUTING
Dropper posts are quickly becoming standard fare for gravel racers and riders that spend significant time on rough surfaces, and the DSX features internal dropper post routing for easy upgrades.
