Trek Marlin 5 Fury Red: a mountain bike that keeps pace with your progress

Bright red and a coherent spec: the third-generation Trek Marlin 5 combines an Alpha Silver aluminium frame, a Suntour XCT 30 fork with hydraulic lockout (80 mm in XS, 100 mm on larger sizes), a Shimano CUES 1x9 drivetrain and 27.5 or 29-inch wheels depending on size, for 15.10 kg in size M. Fury Red is an intense, glossy red, full of energy.

Who is it for?

For the novice mountain biker who wants to improve on the trails and take part in their first organised rides, for the rider returning to sport who wants a motivating bike, or for the growing teenager moving up to an adult size. It suits sporty weekend rides as well as everyday journeys.

The LVR workshop view

Alpha aluminium, Trek's expertise. Under the Alpha name, Trek groups its aluminium alloys by level of finish. The Marlin 5 inherits Alpha Silver, built to last: thick tubes where impacts are concentrated, cables routed inside the frame so they do not rub, and routing already in place for a dropper seatpost. It is a frame that is happy to grow old with you.

	Alpha Silver (Marlin 5)	Alpha Gold (Roscoe 8)	Alpha Platinum (Farley 5)
Level	Entry point to the aluminium MTB range	More aggressive trail hardtail	Lighter aluminium, fat bike use
Construction	Reinforced tubes, versatile geometry	Tapered head tube, Boost, ISCG 05	Refined frame, plenty of mounts
Reference bike	Marlin 4 to 7	Roscoe 8	Farley 5
What it means	Tough, versatile, easy to maintain	Takes a 140 mm fork	Takes 4.50-inch tyres

In short: the Marlin 5 keeps the frame shared by the whole Marlin family and brings two real improvements over the Marlin 4: a ninth gear with a wider-range cassette, and a fork lockout, which is invaluable on the road. It weighs 200 g more than the Marlin 4 in size M, a difference you will not feel on the trail.

To progress, you need a predictable bike. The Marlin 5 has stable geometry, generous tyres and a fork that smooths out the bumps, so your first technical sections are tackled with more confidence. XS and S run on 27.5-inch wheels, more agile for smaller riders; the other sizes on 29-inch wheels, which roll over obstacles more easily.

The 11-46 cassette offers a very low gear for climbing the ramps of the Montagne Noire, and the fork lockout saves you from tiring yourself needlessly on road links. We recommend a service after the first few months of use to check cable and spoke tension. Fury red makes you want to ride, and it is easy to spot in a group.

Which Marlin should you choose?

Model	Fork	Drivetrain	Wheels / tyres	Weight (M)
Marlin 4	Suntour XCE 28, 100 mm	Shimano ESSA 1x8	29 x 2.40 in (inner tube)	14.90 kg
Marlin 5	Suntour XCT 30, 100 mm, lockout	Shimano CUES 1x9	29 x 2.40 in (inner tube)	15.10 kg
Marlin 6	RockShox Judy, 100 mm	Shimano CUES 1x10 + dropper post	Tubeless Ready rims	15.00 kg
Marlin 7	RockShox Judy Silver air, 100 mm	SRAM NX Eagle 1x12 + dropper post	Maxxis Rekon Tubeless Ready	14.15 kg

Our take: the Marlin 5 is a good starting point for progressing. If you already know you will be looking for descents, the Marlin 7 and its adjustable air fork will speed up your progress.

LVR sizing advice

In XS and S, the Marlin 5 rolls on 27.5-inch wheels with a lowered top tube that is easier to step over; from size M it moves to 29-inch wheels. If you are between two sizes, choose the smaller one if you are new to trails.
