Trek Marlin
Both generations of Marlins are true mountain bikes aimed at the rider who wants a versatile hardtail capable of off-road singletrack or in-city missions. Both generations have a 100mm travel suspension fork and 29” wheels on most sizes except for smaller sizes with proportionate suspension travel and wheels, thus making it a great bike for shorter riders as well. Explore the Marlin gen differences below.
Marlin Gen 2
Get all-around versatility on Marlin Gen 2. It fits up to 2.2˝ tires, and features balanced, neutral geometry that keeps you comfortable and in control as you venture off road.
Marlin Gen 3
Get serious trail capability with Marlin Gen 3’s bigger, 2.4˝ tire clearance, internal dropper post routing, and a stiffer and more secure ThruSkew rear axle. Plus, its updated longer, slacker geometry gives you a boost in stability on steeper trails and at higher speeds.
