It's ideal for you if...
You want a versatile trail bike with upgrades to the most important components, but one that won't break the bank. You want to improve your trail riding skills and need a bike with geometry that inspires confidence.
The Marlin 7 is the benchmark trail bike for those who want to improve their singletrack skills and get the most bang for their buck, with upgraded suspension and confidence-inspiring geometry.
Features
You'll enjoy truly modern mountain bike geometry that handles singletrack with confidence and is versatile enough for road and bike path use.
A RockShox fork with 100mm of suspension absorbs the impact of rocks and roots and an upgraded 12-speed SRAM Eagle drivetrain.
The fender mounts allow you to easily attach accessories and use this mountain bike for urban commuting on uneven terrain. Internal cable routing allows you to easily add a dropper post, which lets you lower the saddle on the fly for more confident descents.
The Marlin models in sizes XXS and XS have a lower, curved top tube to make it easier for shorter riders to mount and dismount the bike.
