Apologies for the inconvenience caused. Some of our shipments come from a third party supplier and ship at a different time. We will find a way to be clearer about this in the future

Excellent

Purchased a few components from the website. Had an issue with a handlebar. Sent me a new one. No issues. Good quality. The pedals and grips are great. I bought the bike itself (bobcat trail 4) from an independent dealer. No issues with the bike. Altogether. Impressed with everything.

defective tires, no support

Bought a brand-new Marin bike. Both tires were defective from the factory. My local shop sent all the photos Marin requested… and then silence. No response from Marin. No help from the dealer. I had to pay for two brand-new tires myself. On a new bike! Absolutely unacceptable.

We're truly sorry about the defective tires on your new bike and our lack of response. This is completely unacceptable, and you shouldn't have paid out of pocket. Please email service@marinbikes.com with your photos and receipts, and name of the shop - we'll make this right!

Shipping is too expensive

Great support for an "older" model that just needed a proprietary derailleur hanger.
I would have much preferred a shipping option that wasn't a $15 premium via FedEx... Ground for $5? It's a 2oz derailleur hanger, throw it in an envelope. get creative.
