Who is it for?

The LVR workshop view

Alpha Gold aluminium, lightness first. The Marlin+ 8 doesn't use the Powerfly+ frame: Trek built it in Alpha Gold aluminium around a more compact motor and a 400 Wh battery. The result is slimmer tubes, mounts for a rack, mudguards and a kickstand, and a UDH universal derailleur hanger.

	Alpha Platinum (Powerfly+)	Alpha Gold (Marlin+)	OCLV Mountain carbon (Rail+ 9.7 / 9.8)
Level	Powerfly+ alloy	Marlin+ 8 alloy	Trek mountain bike carbon
Construction	Wide down tube for PowerTube	Slimmer tubes, CompactTube 400 Wh	OCLV compaction, impact-resistant lay-up
Reference bike	Powerfly+ 4, 23.10 kg (M)	Marlin+ 8, 21.89 kg (M)	Rail+ 9.7 / 9.8
What it means	More battery, more weight	Lighter, more natural bike	A different category of bike

Put simply: at 21.89 kg in M, the Marlin+ 8 is the lightest electric mountain bike in this comparison. Its 50 Nm motor supports your pedalling rather than replacing it: ideal on tracks, less at ease on very steep slopes.

The factory mounts let you add mudguards, a rack and a kickstand without clamps: the bike stays clean and solid, and turns back into a mountain bike in a few minutes. The UDH hanger, a universal standard, makes it easier to replace the derailleur after a crash and opens the door to the latest drivetrains.

The 2.60 inch Tubeless Ready Gunnison Pro XR tyres add comfort on rutted tracks as well as on town-centre cobbles. With the Recon Silver RL fork and its lockout, you firm up the front on the road, then free it up on the tracks. As regulations require, the electric assist stops at 25 km/h with a 250 W rated motor.

Marlin+ 8 or Powerfly+: which should you choose?

Model	Motor / battery	Suspension (M)	Drivetrain	Weight (M)
Marlin+ 8	Bosch Active Line Plus / 400 Wh	120 mm fork	Shimano Deore 12-speed	21.89 kg
Powerfly+ 4	Bosch CX / 600 Wh	120 mm fork (100 in S)	Shimano CUES 10-speed	23.10 kg
Powerfly+ 6 (TranzX post, Kovee rims)	Bosch CX / 800 Wh	120 mm fork (100 in S)	Shimano 12-speed	24.10 kg
Powerfly+ 8 (SRAM Eagle 70)	Bosch CX / PowerTube	Fox 120 mm (100 in S)	SRAM Eagle 70 12-speed	23.08 kg

Our take: with the same mechanical spec, this red and grey colourway stops at size L, unlike the mauve one. Compared with the Powerfly+ 4 Equipped (25.70 kg), the Marlin+ 8, which you kit out yourself, remains much lighter.

LVR sizing advice

The Marlin+ 8 adapts its cockpit to the size: in S, a 720 mm bar, 35 mm stem, 27.5 inch wheels and a 100 mm dropper; above that, a 780 mm bar and 29 inch wheels. If you are between sizes, the smaller one will reassure beginners.

Size	S	M	L
Rider height (cm)	155-165	165-177	177-188
Inseam (cm)	74-78	79-83	84-89
Fork (mm)	120	120	120
Wheels (in)	27.5	29	29
Dropper post (mm)	100	150	150
