Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Trek Marlin 6 Gen 3 XC MTB in Lava

Season:2026

Brand:Trek

Code:57365RED

The Marlin 6 is the perfect ride for progressing your skills on the trails.

Its updated slacker frame geometry makes it easier to control on descents while the suspension fork takes the edge off bumpy trails. Integrated rack and kickstand mounts make it easy to add accessories to this versatile steed.

Smaller frames have a top tube that dips down as it approaches the seat tube. This design makes for a lower standover height, which is good for shorter riders because it allows them to straddle their bike more easily. Larger frame sizes have a straight top tube because taller riders with longer legs typically do not have the same issues with standover height.

Marlin comes in seven frame sizes to suit riders of any height, and Smart Wheel Size ensures you are on the fastest wheel that fits. The smallest sizes even come with short-reach brake levers and narrower handlebars that give smaller riders better comfort and control.

Marlin looks and feels great. It is packed with features usually found only on more expensive bikes, like a stylish frame with internal shift cable and brake hose routing, which can help the cables last longer by protecting them from the elements.

Inspired by rider demand for trouble-free drivetrain longevity and performance, Shimano CUES offers a new foundation for versatility and durability across a range of both electric and standard bikes. CUES features Shimano's new LINKGLIDE drivetrain technology for significantly increased life on wear items like chain, cassette, and chainrings.

LINKGLIDE technology has been specifically engineered for incredible durability while still delivering smooth and decisive shifting, along with a great pedalling experience. It is available exclusively on Shimano CUES drivetrains.
