The Marlin is Trek’s most popular mountain bike and a best-seller here at Bay Cycles. It’s a hardtail mountain bike, so a reliable suspension fork is paired with a simple and well proven aluminium frame. Now in 'Generation 3', the Marlin 8 has a fully evolved frame that’s packed with neat details.

Trek uses its Smart Wheel sizing on the Marlin mountain bikes. This means the wheel sizes increasing proportionally with frame sizes, so every rider gets a bike that's proportionally correct. Trek bucks the industry trend, offering 8 frame sizes, so whether you’re under 5’, over 6’5”, or anywhere in between, you’re guaranteed a great fit.

Like all Trek bikes the premium build quality and finish is a notch above many brands and we assemble your new machine with care and precision. Our staff will ensure you get the correct frame size and adjust the saddle height and controls to suit you.

Our Verdict: The Trek Marlin 8 is a premium hardtail mountain bike that will boost your confidence on off road trails. It’s versatile too, so commuting through rough urban streets, or heading out on a bikepacking adventure are all within the Marlin’s abilities.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF THE MARLIN 8:

  • Trek’s Alpha Silver aluminium frame is light and strong and carries a lifetime warranty.

  • RockShox Judy Silver air-sprung suspension fork with a lockout feature lets you (or us) fine-tune the settings to suit your riding

  • 100mm fork travel (80mm on XXS/XS frame sizes) is spot on for cross country riding.

  • The wide range SRAM SX Eagle 1x12 transmission makes gear shifting intuitive.

  • Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes are reliable and give powerful breaking in all weather conditions.

  • Bontrager Kovee wheel rims are tubeless-ready – just add rim strips and sealant.

  • High volume (2.4” wide) Maxxis tubeless-ready tyres are fast rolling and work well on a variety of terrain
