Clearance GTw Marathon Elite

This bike will have you turning those "short afternoon rides" into "epic trail runs" thanks to its climb-friendly setup! GT's patented Independent Drivetrain system eliminates pedal feedback, so you can go longer and harder. Add on the bump-absorbing, dual suspension from Rock Shox and Fox, a Shimano SLX 27-speed drivetrain, disc wheels and Kenda tires that grip like a vice, and you'll start to wonder how you ever rode less than four hours a day!

GT Independent Drivetrain full suspension frame with 4" of rear travel provides unbeatable pedaling power and efficiency

Rock Shox Recon 335 Air with 120mm of travel is built to tackle steep climbs while maintaining exceptional steering and response

Fox Float R rear shock with rebound adjustment provides smooth travel over aggressive terrain

Shimano SLX 27-speed drivetrain with triple cranks deliver sharp, powerful shifts and include plenty of gears for the hills and flats

Ritchey handlebar, stem and seatpost for core-level strength, style and performance

Avid Juicy 3 hydraulic disc brakes guarantee rapid and controlled stopping power in any condition

Kenda Nevegal tires flatten every obstacle in your path and really perform in the climbs

WTB SpeedDisc XC rims with Shimano Deore hubs are strong, tough and ready for anything you can dish out

Why is the Price So Low?
We sell these directly from the factory distribution warehouse so you get a price very close to what a bike shop pays wholesale for a comparably equipped bicycle. These brand new Shimano equipped Mountain bikes come with the full factory warranty and are available now for an incredible discount.  

This is a complete bike
- with high quality Shimano Drivetrain,
Derailleurs, Shifters. Shimano Cranks with sealed cartridge Bottom Bracket.


Why buy a comparable bike in a shop for more when you can have better performance for less money spent?

Best way to pick size; get a frame you can clear standover by at least 1 inch
(this is a rough guide, please consult the geometry to make your final decision)

Remember... no sales tax in 48 States + UPS GROUND to 48 STATES is included
