The Marin Quake is a full‑on downhill bike built for bike park laps, steep tracks and the fastest, roughest terrain. It has been developed through multiple prototype generations with direct feedback from top riders. Matt Jones, Mark Matthews and Vinnie Moonen have all helped shape the Quake, testing it at Darkfest, Hardline and some of the most demanding downhill courses in the world.
This development process has created a frame that is strong, stable and capable at high speed. The suspension layout is tuned for big hits, heavy landings and rough ground. The geometry is designed for control on steep descents, with a planted feel that helps riders push harder on technical terrain. Every part of the bike is chosen for durability and performance under extreme loads.
The Quake is built for riders who want a downhill bike that has been proven by elite athletes on the toughest tracks. It is designed to handle bike park jumps, freeride features and DH courses with confidence and control.
