The Marin DSX FS 2026 is an electric gravel bike with a difference. Blending the speed and versatility of a gravel bike with the control and capability of a mountain bike, the DSX FS is built for riders who want to explore beyond the tarmac. Finished in a striking Black/Orange colourway, this versatile bike is ready for everything from daily rides and canal paths to rough gravel tracks and demanding off-road adventures.
At the heart of the DSX FS is a lightweight Series 3 6061 aluminium frame featuring suspension-adjusted geometry, internal cable routing and a tapered head tube. The frame also includes practical mudguard and rack mounts, making it a great choice for commuting, bikepacking and longer-distance adventures.
Built for Off-Road Adventure
What really sets the Marin DSX FS apart is its SR Suntour GVX LOR 60mm air suspension fork. Designed specifically to add extra control and comfort when riding rougher terrain, the fork features adjustable rebound and lockout, allowing you to tailor the ride to the conditions.
The combination of 700x45 Vee Tire Co QuikStyk tyres, tubeless-compatible Marin double-wall aluminium rims and front suspension gives the DSX FS plenty of grip and confidence when the trail gets rough. Whether you're tackling gravel roads, forest tracks, bridleways or uneven city routes, this bike is designed to keep you moving.
12-Speed Shimano Drivetrain
A 12-speed Shimano Deore drivetrain provides a wide range of gears for tackling everything from fast flat sections to steep climbs. The 42T narrow-wide chainring helps provide secure chain retention when riding off-road, while the Shimano Deore 12-speed rear derailleur and shifter deliver smooth, dependable gear changes.
Hydraulic disc brakes from Shimano provide powerful and controlled braking performance, with 160mm rotors front and rear giving you confidence when descending, cornering or riding in changing conditions.
Comfortable, Practical and Versatile
The DSX FS isn't just built for off-road riding. Its versatile frame and practical features make it equally suited to commuting and everyday cycling. Internal cable routing, mudguard mounts and rack mounts allow you to configure the bike around your needs, whether you're heading to work during the week or escaping onto the trails at the weekend.
The Marin MiniRiser handlebar and MTB-style grips provide a confident riding position, while the TranzX YSP38J dropper seatpost gives you additional control on steeper and more technical terrain. Travel is 70mm on size S and 110mm on sizes M–XL.
