Marin Bike Size Chart

Marin Bikes started in 1986 in Marin County, California, during the early mountain-bike boom. The current catalog still centers on mountain bikes, with gravel, hybrid, road, and kids around it. This page has Marin’s charts for those categories. Alpine Trail and Gestalt are not interchangeable sizes. Use inseam when two rows overlap, then check stack and reach.

How to measure

Height filters the chart. Cycling inseam decides which overlapping size to keep. The method is the same for every brand.

Height and inseam

Height

Take shoes off and stand tall, looking straight ahead. A helper should rest a flat object on the crown of your head, then run a tape from the floor to the underside of that object. Save the number in inches and centimeters — charts use both.

Inseam

Stand tall and barefoot with feet slightly apart. Ask a helper to measure vertically from your crotch to the floor. Keep your legs straight and feet flat.

FAQ

  • What Marin bike size do I need?

    Use your height on the Mountain, Gravel, Hybrid, Road and Kids charts on this page. On the mountain table, 168-170 cm sits in both S and M. Cycling inseam and standover pick the side. Then check stack and reach for the exact Marin model.

  • Can I copy a Marin size from one bike type to another?

    Not safely. Marin Mountain, Gravel, Hybrid, Road and Kids charts on this page are separate. A Marin S on the mountain table and a Marin 50 on the gravel table are not interchangeable.

  • Which Marin sizes are listed on this page?

    The Mountain, Gravel, Hybrid, Road and Kids charts on this page include S, M, L (157-200 cm on the mountain table). Verify the current Marin model chart on the official site before purchase.
