Rolling on 27.5” wheels fitted with 2.25” wide MTB tyres, the Wildcat balances agility with stability. Up front, an SR Suntour XCE fork with 100mm travel helps smooth out bumps and roots on off-road trails, while the wide Marin alloy handlebar gives riders extra leverage for steering control.
The drivetrain comes from Shimano’s Tourney range, with a 3x7 setup giving you 21 gears to tackle climbs and descents. Shifting is intuitive and supported by Shimano levers, while a reliable sealed cartridge bottom bracket helps keep things running smoothly. Braking is handled by Tektro mechanical disc brakes with 160mm rotors, giving dependable stopping power in a range of conditions.
Marin hasn’t overlooked comfort — the Wildcat Trail 1 is equipped with women’s-specific finishing kit including a saddle, bars, and contact points designed to fit female riders better. Together with a stable geometry inspired by Marin’s mountain bike heritage, this makes the bike approachable for newcomers while still being fun for more experienced riders.
Perfect for riders looking to explore trails, forest paths, and canal towpaths, the Wildcat Trail 1 delivers great value and a fun, confidence-inspiring ride, making it an ideal gateway into the world of mountain biking.
