Trek Marlin 5 Power Surge

The Marlin 5 is a versatile mountain bike that confidently handles all adventures—both in everyday life and on the trail. Its trail-ready frame with suspension fork, the Shimano CUES drivetrain with 9 gears, and mounting options for racks and kickstands make it the ideal choice for trail riders and anyone looking for a comfortable, stable commuter bike that scores with the robustness of a genuine mountain bike.

Trek offers you a lightweight aluminum frame with internal cable routing to protect cables and provide a clean Look, as well as a higher-quality Shimano CUES 9-speed drivetrain with a wide gear range, ensuring the right gear is always available in any terrain. In addition, it features powerful hydraulic disc brakes and a suspension fork with lockout that confidently smooths out bumps.

• The Marlin Gen 3 impresses with its substantial trail capabilities, high tire clearance, and slack, confidence-inspiring geometry that guarantees stable handling both in the city and on singletrack.
• Rack and mudguard mounts make it easy to attach accessories that transform your mountain bike into a robust commuter bike.
• The ThruSkew axle system is safer, simpler, and more stable, allowing easy removal of the rear wheel for repairs.
• Thanks to internal cable routing, a dropper seatpost can easily be retrofitted, allowing quick saddle lowering on descents.
• Marlin models in frame sizes XXS and XS feature a curved top tube and lower standover height, making it easier for smaller riders to mount and dismount.
