Marin Bikes Anmeldelser 

Instructions would have been helpful with the assembly.

Fast shipping, bike is excellent for its in tended purpose.

Bike is of really good quality. The fit and finish Is good. I am 6’ and I got the large frame. The bike seems to be a little on the long end. There’s not much more room to adjust the seat post down due to the water bottle mount/screw in the frame.

I also ordered the bike online and it didn’t come with a seat post clamp. I sent a message to Marin and have yet to hear back from them.

Ich hatte nach gut einem Jahr einen Riss im Carbonrahmen meines Marin Headlands. Außerdem drehte sich ein Insert einer Schraube im Rahmen, so dass man diese nicht mehr herausdrehen konnte. Von Marin bekam ich nie eine Rückmeldung auf meine Anfrage bezüglich Garantie. Zum Glück wurde es durch den Händler ersetzt.

Der Rahmen weist aber auch sonst weitere Konstruktive Mängel auf, die man in dieser Preisklasse nicht erwartet.
Die Kabelführung ist eine einzige Katastrophe. Um das Innenlagergehäuse verlaufen sie Außen herum. Es gibt hier zwei Zugführungen am Rahmen, die ins Carbon genietet sind. Da stehen einem die Haare zu berge!
Der Kabelaustritt vorne aus dem Unterrohr ist auch billigst gemacht. Die Kabel werden fast senkrecht nach Außen geführt, was absolut unschön aussieht. Das Kunststoffteil, durch das sie herausgeführt werden, ist nur in den Rahmen hineingedrückt und hält sich mit Kunststoffnasen, die abbrechen, wenn man das Teil ausbauen will.
Auch die Lackierung oben auf dem Unterrohr war fehlerhaft und hatte Bläschen.
Im Carbon waren zudem deutliche Dellen erkennbar.
Jeder billigrahmen von Temu dürfte da besser gemacht sein.
Alles in allem bin ich froh, den Rahmen los zu sein.

Ergänzung: Seitens Marin habe ich hier die Anfrage erhalten, dass ich ihnen den Vorgang per Mail schildern solle. Dies ist geschehen, bis heute ohne jegliche Reaktion seitens Marin, wie schon die ganze Zeit... Der Verdacht liegt nahe, dass man hier bei den Bewertungen bemüht tun will, letztendlich aber kein wirkliches Interesse hat solche Fälle zu klären.

Easy to navigate website and locate the exact part I need for my mountain bike.

Derailleur was bent from poor shipping setup.

Purchasing the bike, Bolinas Ridge 2, was a breeze. Althoug the "estimated" delivery time was between 2 and 4 weeks, I received it in 5 days. The assembly instructions were easy to follow, and the customer service was outstanding when I contacted them about some left over parts and other questions.

This is my second bike from Marin. My first was stolen, then recovered. It was in bad enough shape that it would've been more expensive to fix it than buy a new one. It's currently out by the dumpster area if you want it.

The mechanics are great. Even out of the box all the gears were adjusted properly as there was no chatter while shifting through the gears. It is a smooth riding bike.

I’m a novice rider and this is my first bike. Recommended by my son. He was right, this is a very nice bike. (Don’t tell him I said that.😉) Easy to assemble. Delivered quickly. I’m very pleased.

Absolutely great, not 5 stars due to hanger is really soft, and shipping cost, but other than that it's great

All I wanted was to go to the website and get the specific part I needed for this Marin Rift Zone 1. The website is trash. I actually had to scoure the internet and purchase the part from a 3rd party company because the search engine for the manufacturer was garbage. Buy a Trek or Specialized instead!

Terrible experience, took far too long to deliver, pedals are cheap. Seat is too high . Had to call out of work thwice for missed deliveries. Package required a signature. Literally had to chase down the FEDEX Driver to get my package while at work. This was honestly the worst most stressful thing I’ve ever ordered.

The customer service rep I contacted, Cindy Lacotta, insulted me. Text quoted below. Gravy, the rep she passed me off to, was helpful.

Hey Gravy,

This is an ExpertVoice order, and I suspect the guy isn’t really an “expert”. *eyeroll* Can you reach out to him and help him out?

Thanks,

Order took too long to ship and the through axel does not fit. I used the fitment recommended on the Marin sight. I have an axel that does not fit and had to overnight the correct one from another supplier.

Great bike!

This bike looks nice, performs great, and came quickly. Putting it together wasn't too challenging.

Here is what it is; either they think the customer who returns their product deserves a phuq-U, so they don't do anything to facilitate the process, or they just think they're above retail detail.
Postal tracking showed our return delivered.
Nothing.
They're happy to come on here & pretend they care or want to help when they get a bad review - in reality, they don't answer emails if they know what you want. It's just not work they want to do.
They don't care about us, so it's safe to assume they won't care about you.

I bought a Marin bike thinking I’d casually cruise around the neighborhood. Instead, I accidentally became that guy who wears padded shorts and says things like “cadence” unironically. Thanks, Marin — now I own three pairs of sunglasses, none of which are for fashion.

This bike climbs hills like a mountain goat on espresso and descends like it’s being chased by the IRS. Smooth, fast, and somehow makes me feel like a Tour de France contender even though I stop for snacks every 2 miles.

Pros:

Looks fast even when I'm walking it uphill

Made me google "aerodynamics for dads"

Local squirrels nod respectfully as I ride by

Cons:

My car feels jealous

My friends say I talk about "geometry" too much (they mean bike geometry, obviously)

I can't blame the bike for being slow anymore—it’s definitely me

10/10 would pedal into the sunset again.

One bike arrived fine & is great! A second shipment/bike was damaged, missing parts & probably needs to be replaced...

Fast, efficient service and a quick response to any questions. Thanks!

Awesome. Very satisfied.
