Who is it for?

For the rider who loves long rides of several hours and wants a light, efficient bike, for anyone preparing for sporty organised rides or regional MTB raids, or for a mountain biker who wants a high-performing hardtail before a possible move to full suspension.

The LVR workshop view

Alpha aluminium, Trek's expertise. The Marlin 7 shares the Alpha Silver aluminium of its little brothers: same frame, same geometry, same utility mounts. The weight difference therefore comes not from the frame but from the components: air fork, folding-bead tyres, lighter hubs. It is a good example of a solid frame on which the spec makes all the difference.

	Marlin 7	Marlin 6	Roscoe 8
Frame	Alpha Silver, 29 in wheels (27.5 in XS/S)	Alpha Silver, same geometry	Alpha Gold, Boost, 2.60 in tyres
Suspension	100 mm air fork, adjustable rebound	100 mm coil fork	140 mm air fork
Weight (M)	14.15 kg	15.00 kg	13.54 kg
What it means	The most accomplished Marlin on the trail	Simpler, heavier	More aggressive, built for descending

In short: 850 g lighter than the Marlin 6, a fork you set to your weight and an 11-50 cassette that climbs almost anything. The Marlin 7 is the entry-level hardtail we recommend when you already know you will be riding trails often.

On a long ride, every gram and every watt counts. The folding-bead Maxxis Rekon tyres roll well and are lighter than wire-bead tyres; set up tubeless, they reduce rolling resistance. The Formula LW hubs also contribute to the weight saving over less well-equipped Marlins.

The NX Eagle 1x12 drivetrain offers a 30x50 gear for long raid climbs and a 30x11 for fast links. The hydraulic fork lockout avoids wasting energy on smooth tracks. This sparkling mint green adds a welcome touch of freshness on dry summer tracks.

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: for long rides and raids, the Marlin 7 is the best-suited Marlin thanks to its weight and 12-speed drivetrain. To go even faster, a Procaliber in carbon or Alpha Platinum aluminium will be lighter.

LVR sizing advice

The Marlin 7 comes in sizes XS to XXL; dropper post travel and crank length grow with the frame. If you are between two sizes, the larger one gives more stability at speed.
