Trek 2023 Marlin 5 Gen 2 MTB

Hardtail Mountain Bikes

Product Details

Marlin 5 is a trail-worthy daily rider that's perfectly suited for everyday adventures, on and off the trail.

A suspension fork, 2x8 drivetrain, and mounts for a rack and kickstand make it an ideal choice for new trail riders or anyone looking for a comfortable, stable commuter with the ruggedness of a real mountain bike.

It's right for you if...
You're new to the trail and you’re looking for a real mountain bike that doubles as a commuter—and you want it all at an exceptional value.

The tech you get
A lightweight aluminium frame with internal routing to protect your cables and add to the bike's sleek look, 2x8 drivetrain, a wide range of gearing so you always have the right gear for your terrain, powerful hydraulic disc brakes, and a terrain-smoothing suspension fork with a lockout.

The final word
Marlin 5 is a great ride for all your adventures. But it's also versatile, and Marlin 5 is a popular ride on college campuses because the rack and kickstand mounts make it easy to accessorize and haul a load.

Why you'll love it
  • It's a real mountain bike that's also perfectly suited to daily commutes, rides around campus, or just getting from A to B on any surface
  • Smaller frame sizes (XXS, XS, and S) have short-reach brake levers that make it easier and more comfortable for riders with smaller hands to brake confidently
  • Marlin models in XXS through S frame sizes have a curved top tube and a lower standover height that makes it easier for smaller riders to mount and dismount
  • Rack and kickstand mounts make it easy to accessorize, so your mountain bike can double as a rugged commuter
  • Like every model in the Marlin family, it's backed by Trek's lifetime warranty

  • Fine for entry level
    We bought one of the kids a Marlin 5 a few year ago. It's fine for knocking about, trails etc but the fork isn't worth having. It became died weight / total seized after about a year and given the bike is quite heavy anyway I wonder why Trek don't just make the Marlin 5 fully rigid and save weight and dollars.

  • Nice built
    Perfect for average rider. Suitable in lights trails and daily commutes. Haven’t tried in any hard trails but with the built quality seems it can handle some jumps. :)
