MY 2020 MARIN HAWK HILL IS HERE!! ISOLATION EP5

[@thecasualmountainbiker]

Your videos have changed my mind about Marin Bikes. They are clearly very capable bikes. Good for them and good for you!

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

[@cliffsangelsphotography]

Great vid. I'm torn between building a Marin San Quentin or Hawk Hill. Glad to see a vid on the Hawk Hill

[@jacob_cox]

Great vid, I really agree about the hawk hill I own one and it's a really fun bike

Yes!!

Awesome colors on your new bike 👌🏼

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Im so stoked!

[@edge2991]

thank you for your video i am coming off from the marlin 6 already put 1k miles on it great bike, next full sus i was looking at trek fuel ex 5 but when i looked at the marin hawk hill 1 i fell in love with the price, I also weight about 140lbs 5'9 tall you think the hawkhill 1 STOCK can take same abuse you are putting your current hawk? thanks greetings from dallas texas

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Hey, the hawk hill 1 is the exact same frame so it could take the abuse! The spec isn’t as nice as the 3 or my custom build so it won’t be as light or high performing, but it should be just as strong!

[@edge2991]

@@MarkMatthewsMTB thank you so much

[@gilbride154]

This series is awesome!

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

thanks drew! New video on Monday. Let's hope the pouring rain stops today!!

[@andrewtsiknislad5566]

Hey mark, I’m looking into the hawk hill, I really like how the top tube leads directly in to the seat stay. I can’t find any places that sell that model of the hawk hill. I was wondering if it was just size. It would be great to hear back

[@finnisgay5056]

Keep uploading you are doing amazing love your videos how do you make them so good?!!!!

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks so much dude!

[@jakpbubu]

Changed recon 120 to Aion 140 (similiar to your Auron) on my Hawk Hill 1, what a difference! Now I want to jump everything:) Another great vid, keep posting them.

[@Gingerpele91]

I'm getting the Rift Zone 27.5 3 think I should go up to 140mm for the front?

[@jakpbubu]

@@Gingerpele91 If you have 140 fork already or can afford a new one, then go for it! Sunshine season started in Poland today so tomorrow I am going to ride it again:)

I can't wait for it to dry up a bit and I'll get out there hitting it!

[@MrMaxx._.]

Is your dirt dry or are you making the dirt wet before digging?

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Definitely not, it rains a ton here! We have the opposite problem

[@MrMaxx._.]

@@MarkMatthewsMTB Ok, didn’t even know about the rain

Wow that looks amazing. I would have built a s berm next

[@brinleyclement1952]

Dang the new bike looks sick I’m saving up for the hawk hill 1 but I’m long way from having enough money. But it sounds like just because it’s only 130/120 doesn’t mean it’s not capable.🤙🏼🤟🏼trails look sick

[@christopheredwards6430]

[@reezin14]

Great video,keep them coming,would love to ride this.😀A question if I may. How long do you plan on making the trail(minutes wise)?

[@jessecruz5262]

I’m really enjoying your videos. I’m eyeing the Hawk Hill 3 and the Alpine 7. Any advice on sizing? I’m 5’6” 190lbs. Thanks keep up with the sick videos.

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks Jesse! I'm 5'6" (167cm) and 140 lbs and ride a small. I would say a small is probably good for you... with a heavier spring coil for you could be really sick!

[@dhiraj_77]

Hi man love your videos. By the way what's your hieght in cm? Just for the bike size survey

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks! 167cm size small

[@BernardoSLino]

I really like the design of your bike but the Hawk Hill's on the website are different, the top tube and the top chainstays are not aligned as your's is, the seatpost area is more elevated. Would that be because your bike is an S? Just wondering.

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

It's the exact same frame, just the components are different. Unless you are looking at a 2018 model or older.

[@brinleyclement1952]

What are you doing with the old hawk hill

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

it's already been sold.

[@octodadmtbmartyrichards2862]

Nice bike! How tall are you? Looking and getting a small for my wife and son to share. My son is 150cm and loves to jump and down hill are breaks ok for longer down hill shuttles?

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

5'6" (167cm) I think that would be a good size. the Shimano xt brakes I have are awesome for downhill

[@jaredbonnett9262]

I'm curious, how tall are you? I'm right on the edge of small and medium and don't know what to go with.

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

I'm 5'6"

@@MarkMatthewsMTB Thank you! I'm 5'7 and I think I'm going to go with the small.

Do you think switching the rear shock from 210x50 to 210x55 would be fine?
