1. Unbeatable versatility<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nTrek Marlin looks like a mountain bike but it\u2019s built to go just about anywhere. Ride to school, take it to the park, explore the local canalside tracks and then enjoy some moderate trails; this is the bike that does it all. Marlin has a lightweight build with high stiffness and plenty of strength, and medium travel suspension on the front fork for increased comfort over lumpy surfaces. Every model has disc brakes for confident stopping power and the tyres are knobbly enough to provide grip off-road but not so much that they detract from your pedalling effort on the tarmac.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. A reasonable entry price<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nStarting normally at \u00a3475 \u2013 currently \u00a3439 in our sale<\/a> \u2013 these bikes are a genuinely affordable way to get a high quality bike that will stand the test of time \u2013 and teenagers! Trek\u2019s build quality is off the charts and means that investing in a bike from this global powerhouse brand will pay dividends over time, as a well-looked-after machine can be handed down to little brothers and sisters. Looking at a mid-range Trek Marlin 6<\/a>, this could be yours for only \u00a324.96 a month through Klarna, with a range of other buying options including the Cycle To Work Schemes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n3. Reassuring warranty<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/actv\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2023\/07\/trek-marlin-family-rides-1200-x-800-2-1024x683.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nWe often hear Trek\u2019s warranty described as the best in the world. This includes a lifetime warranty for the frame for the original owner, as well as two years on parts, paint and transfers. While this is great news for adult riders, it\u2019s especially reassuring when it comes to bikes for the kids. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. Colourways that everyone loves<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nWhile owning a bike that\u2019s reliable, durable and a great ride is the top priority, looking great is important too. Trek Marlin is available in a hugely varied palette of paint finishes to suit any taste. Choose from Radioactive Red, Galactic Grey, Nautical Navy, Miami Green, Deepdark Blue, Matte Mulberry and more. There\u2019s also a number of two-tone fades that are certain to turn heads as the kids are riding around town with their friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5. Get customised <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nWhether you\u2019re regularly hitting the trails or you\u2019re heading out for family picnics, Marlin can be fully customised with a treasure-trove of accessories. Mounting points at various locations on the frame allow you to attach all kinds of practical touches, according to your own preferences. These include mudguards, rear rack, kickstands and bottle cages, as well as kit that doesn\u2019t require mounting points, like bags and lights. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Trek Marlin 7 in Marigold to Red Fade<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe Marlin range begins with the Marlin 4<\/a>, which normally retails at \u00a3475 but is currently \u00a3439 in our sale. It tops out at the Marlin 8<\/a> at \u00a31,230, which also on sale, at \u00a3999. <\/p>\n\n\n\nYour choice of Marlin will mostly be influenced by the type of riding you want to do and your budget. As you progress through the range, the bikes become more capable and more trail-orientated, with better suspension and tyres. The gearing set-up also becomes more like a trails bike than an all-rounder in mid-level models and above. Essentially, if you want a bike for varied uses, the Marlin 4 and 5 will suit you perfectly but if you want to spend more time on rougher terrain, we recommend looking further up the range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our best value pick is the Marlin 7<\/a> in the stunning Marigold to Red Fade colourway (above), which currently has \u00a3175 off at \u00a3650. That\u2019s as little as \u00a327.09 per month through Klarna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
