Trek Marlin 8 Gen 3 Bike

TREK MARLIN 8 GEN 3 BIKE

The Racebike of Trek was designed for use in on long tours. And that’s exactly where it shines. The geometry is moderate and makes for a balanced handling. Due to the interplay of a relatively long top tube and a low stack, the riding position is sporty. On the downhill, however, the Trek Marlin 8 is left in the dust by its competitors. Heavy riders over 85 kilos aren´t likely to encounter too many problems with the high weight of 14,29 kg. For lighter riders, this could be a disturbance.

FEATURES

• You get real-deal modern mountain bike geometry that keeps handling confident when you’re on singletrack, but is versatile enough for use on roads and bike trails too
• You get a premium RockShox fork with an air spring that’s lighter and more adjustable than a coil
• You get the simplicity and range of 1×12 drivetrain for putting down power on the trail
• The included dropper post lets you get your saddle out of the way when you roll into technical sections and steeper descents
