DESCRIPTION+

The Marlin 8 is a confidence-boosting trail bike

With updated geometry for more control on singletrack, this bike includes features for everyday use like mounts for racks and a kick stand. It's built for years of progress thanks to 12-speed SRAM shifting and an upgraded RockShox air-spring suspension fork.

It's right for you if...

You want a bike that's ready to progress with you on the trail, and is versatile enough for daily riding to school, work and grocery shopping.

The tech you get

A lightweight aluminium frame with modern trail riding geometry and internal routing that keeps cables protected and keeps the bike looking sleek. An air-spring RockShox fork that's lighter and more adjustable than a coil spring, wide-range SRAM shifting and the serious stopping power of hydraulic disc brakes.

Why you'll love it

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 1x12 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.
Marlin models in sizes XXS and XS have a curved top tube and lower standover height that makes it easier for smaller riders to mount and dismount

Trail-ready, Upgrade-ready

The secret to Marlin's popularity is a real trail-savvy mountain bike frame that's upgrade-compatible, so it can grow with you as you take on bigger trails and tougher features.

Roll stronger with Thru Skew

Goodbye open dropouts. The Thru Skewer is a better, stronger, more precisely aligned rear wheel retention system that keeps your wheel more secure than quick-release skewers while still using the standard 135 mm rear hub spacing.

The final word

The Marlin 8 is a progressive trail bike ready for building skills on the singletrack, and taking on daily life too. It packs in premium features where you want them so you can build skills for years to come.

****NOTE: This bike is available for purchase online, but must be picked up from an approved store.
