GT Marathon Elite full-suspension mountain bike is well-suited to long days of cross-country, singletrack bliss.

  • Lightweight 6061 monocoque aluminum frame utilizes i-Drive design, which allows rear suspension to move independently of bottom bracket for a fully active rear end
  • The i-Drive system also smoothes out pedaling on rough trails and minimizes suspension-induced feedback
  • RockShox Recon 335 suspension fork boasts 120mm of travel with rebound adjustment; alloy steerer provides significant weight savings
  • Rear Fox Float R air shock with rebound adjustment nearly levitates rear end over rugged terrain and soaks up big drops
  • Drivetrain is powered by the new Shimano SLX crankset; SLX derailleurs and shifters guide you nimbly through the 27 gear combinations
  • Avid Juicy 3 hydraulic disc brakes ensure simple, effective management of your speed as well as outright stopping power
  • WTB Speed Disc XC rims are laced up with DT Swiss spokes to Deore hubs for superbly smooth spinning; Kenda Nevegal tires ensure traction
  • Cockpit is fully loaded with Ritchey components and topped with WTB Rocket V Comp saddle; Crank Bros Candy C pedals also included
  • Specs are subject to change

Imported.
