Looking at 117 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently praise the products, especially the bikes, for their outstanding build quality, solid feel, and durability. Many appreciate the excellent value, noting that the bikes offer a great balance of performance and price, making high-quality options accessible. The delivery service is also consistently highlighted for its speed and efficiency, with many orders arriving much faster than expected and well-packaged. However, some people were dissatisfied with certain aspects, such as issues with parts like defective tires or poor-quality drivetrains on some bikes.

Immediate service and fast shipping

Received a new bike in the mail with a bent derailleur hanger. I placed the order for a replacement hanger and received it in two days. Nothing worse than downtime, nothing better than super fast customer service! (Love their bikes too, this new bike is my second Marin!)

Great bikes until you have a problem

Great bikes until you have a problem. Non-existent customer service. I have tried sending emails and messaging them on social media. I have received no replies. It has been over three months.

Great bike

Great bike. I use it everyday as a commuter. The gear shifting is a little clunky but I’m hoping after some more break in time that gets better.
