Marin Bikes | 2022 DSX FS (Full Suspension)

Built to blur the line between urban speed and trail capability.

The Marin DSX FS is an adventure-oriented flat bar bike designed for riders who want the efficiency of a road bike, the confidence of a mountain bike, and the comfort to handle rough pavement, gravel paths, and mixed terrain with ease.

Built around Marin’s Series 3 DSX aluminum platform, the 2022 DSX FS combines progressive geometry, a lightweight air suspension fork, wide 700x45c tires, and a Shimano 1x12 drivetrain to create a highly versatile all-road machine. Unlike traditional hybrids that feel nervous or under-equipped off-road, the DSX FS delivers real capability for commuting, gravel riding, fitness riding, and light trail exploration.
