730142004
Product Story
A women's-specific trail hardtail for the rider who wants a frame built around her fit, with a fork that locks out for efficient climbing.
Overview
The Marin Wildcat Trail 3 (Black) is built around a Series 2 6061 aluminum frame with women's-specific geometry and low standover, designed for a genuinely different fit than a unisex frame with a shorter stem.
It's equipped with an SR Suntour XCM HLO fork offering 120mm of travel with hydraulic lockout, a Shimano Altus 8-speed drivetrain, and Clark's Clout hydraulic disc brakes.
This is a bike for a woman rider wanting a genuinely fitted trail hardtail, with real suspension and hydraulic braking rather than a repainted unisex frame.
Why You'll Like It
A frame built around a women's fit
The women's-specific geometry and low standover give a genuinely different fit than a unisex frame, not just a different paint job.
A fork that locks out for efficiency
The SR Suntour XCM HLO fork gives 120mm of travel with hydraulic lockout, smoothing rough sections while letting you firm up the front end for climbs.
Hydraulic brakes for confident stopping
Clark's Clout hydraulic disc brakes give confident, consistent stopping power in all conditions, without the fade a mechanical setup can show.
A simple 8-speed drivetrain
The Shimano Altus 8-speed drivetrain and 11-34T cassette give enough range for climbs and descents without unnecessary complexity.
Who Is It For?
Suited to women riders wanting a genuinely fitted trail hardtail for singletrack and trail riding, rather than a unisex frame with swapped components.
For women riders in India exploring trail systems near most major cities, the women's-specific fit and hydraulic braking make for a more comfortable, more confident ride than a generic unisex setup.
Good to Know
The women's-specific frame geometry and low standover make mounting and dismounting easier, especially on technical terrain.
