TREK MARLIN 8 Gloss Alpine / Gloss Dnister Fade 2022 - mountain bike

The value-priced Marlin 8 mountain bike is ready to race. A lightweight RockShox fork with smooth travel, tubeless-enabled wheels and 1x drivetrain with a wide gear range make it the perfect choice for the novice rider who wants a fast XC hardtail comparable to our top-of-the-line race bikes.

It's for you if...
You want a race mountain bike with upgraded parts that will significantly improve your performance. These include a higher quality and lighter suspension fork, 1x drivetrain with a wide range, and tubeless-ready wheels.

You'll get these features
Lightweight frame with internal cable routing, smoother RockShox Judy Silver fork with Solo Air spring and TurnKey hydraulic lock, Shimano hydraulic disc brakes, Bontrager Kovee wheels that allow for tubeless tires, and a simple 1x12 drivetrain with no derailleur for cleaner, easier operation. The 11-50 wide-range cassette offers all the gearing you need for climbs and fast descents.

With tubeless-enabled wheels, RockShox suspension, a wide gear range and quality parts, this is a great choice for beginner MTB riders who want a proper machine for the money. It handles big trail adventures and XC races with ease.

1. This is without a doubt our most popular bike. The value and versatility make it a race mountain bike that can also be used for commuting thanks to the rear rack mounts.
2. RockShox's Solo Air suspension fork can be easily adjusted to a rider's specific weight and is lighter than a spring suspension.
3. Switching to tubeless tires will reduce the overall weight of the bike and minimize the potential for flats.
4. The 1x drive provides all the gearing you need.
5. Marlin models with frame sizes XXS to S have a curved top frame tube that is also at a lower height off the ground. This makes it easier for smaller riders to mount and dismount.

The right size for every rider - Marlin is available in seven frame sizes for riders of all heights. The Smart Wheel size ensures you'll ride the fastest wheels possible. The smallest sizes are fitted with short reach brake levers and narrower handlebars to give shorter riders more comfort and control.

High technology, high value - The Marlin bike looks good and rides well. It's packed with features you'll usually only find on more expensive bikes. These include a sleek frame with internal shifting and brake cable routing for longer life and protection against the elements.
