Marvin is riding one of the first chromoly tubing BMX frames made by his father.

Recognized as one of the top five fastest and most stylish riders in the early days of the NBA, Marvin represented some of the coolest BMX teams, including Dirt Master, Rick’s/Webco/MotoMag, Shimano and Kawasaki. Based in Sylmar, Marvin rode alongside fellow BMX Hall of Fame inductees Dave Clinton and Bobby Encinas.
