Billed as "the mountain biker's gravel bike," the Marin DSX 2 Complete Bike has a familiar cockpit, a 1x drivetrain, and big tires: perfect for what is essentially mountain biking on gravel. The frame is lightweight aluminum, as stiff as you can handle, with a full carbon fork taking the sting out of bumps and vibrations from the road. Hydraulic disc brakes and dropper post routing mean you'll be tempted to take this one on some of your local mountain bike trails, too!
