2025 Marin DSX 1 Gravel Bike

LONG-DISTANCE MIXED-SURFACE COMMUTING • GRAVEL RIDING • ADVENTURE ON AND OFF-ROAD

The Marin DSX 1 steps up to a higher-spec Series 3 aluminum frame, adding bolt-thru axles for increased stiffness and a carbon fork for reduced weight and extra mounting points—perfect for bikepacking. With an 11-speed Shimano Deore drivetrain, WTB Riddler tires, Tektro hydraulic disc brakes, and plenty of Marin’s reliable components, the DSX 1 is ready to tackle anything from daily commutes to adventurous gravel escapades.
