New Bike Day: 2021 Marin Hawk 3 Trail Bike
Marin Hawk 3 Trail Bike
By Marin Bikes
The Hawk Hill is our most playful trail bike, made for the rider that catches a bit of air off of every root in the trail, is always looking for an alternate line, and ends every ride with a smile. This is an all-around suspension bike with trail performance far outstretching the asking price.
