Congrats to Orhan Kunter, who won the Trek Marlin 8 Gen 2 mountain bike for his soon-to-be 15-yr old son, Zane, and thanks to EVERYBODY who participated in what turned out to be a very special day for the Kunter's as well as Atlanta Cycling, Van Purser Foundation, and Bike Alpharetta.
(suggested retail value: $1329.99)
Marlin 8 Gen 2 is a race-worthy mountain bike.
The smooth, lightweight RockShox fork, tubeless ready wheels,
and wide-range 1x drivetrain make this model the best choice for new riders who
want a fast cross country hardtail that will
hold its own against our higher-end race bikes.
