    Trek Marlin 7 Hardtail Mountain Bike 2018 Black/Red review by Professional Review from bikeexchange.com, on 31/01/2017

    4

    At a price that many deem to be the entry into a bike worthy of off-road abuse, the Marlin 7 sits in a highly competitive market segment. Where the now more expensive X-Caliber once held this price point for Trek, it’s the Marlin that steps up to the plate.

    Trek is no stranger to the 29er-wheeled mountain bike, with its now-discontinued Gary Fisher brand effectively creating the 29er market as early as 2001. Eventually these bikes morphed into the Trek’s we see today, but not before the Gary Fisher brand had arguably perfected the geometry of the big wheel frames, well before many other top brands had looked beyond the tried-and-true 26in wheels.

    Made of Trek’s self-branded ‘Alpha Silver’ aluminium, the Marlin offers a relatively basic, yet perfectly solid frame as the bike’s foundation. The frame features are kept simple with only subtle shaping to the tubes to give them additional strength, simple pannier and fender mounts and a classy coat of paint (three colours to choose from).

    Frame construction and materials aside, it’s the angles and dimensions that have the biggest affect on the trail. As mentioned previously, Trek has had longer than just about any other brand to dial in its geometry for use with 29er wheels, and the Marlin offers geometry quite near to its more expensive siblings.

    Known as ‘G2’ geometry, Trek claim that its 29er-specific designs create a more natural and reactive handling characteristic. A large part of this starts at the fork offset, where the wheel sits some 5mm further in front compared to many other 29er-equipped mountain bikes. First found on the Gary Fisher bikes, this longer offset fork was once specific to Trek, but is now widely adopted by others.

    The bike’s geometry and fork shouldn’t earn all the praise, as it’s the little components that help too. The handlebars and mid-length stem offer a comfortable hand position and offer reasonable leverage over the big wheels. The brakes lack the feedback of more expensive options, but they’ll reliably haul you to a stop whenever needed.

    However, it’s not all perfect. The rubber grips slowly turn on the bars and so would be the first part we’d suggest changing for the keen mountain bikers. Likewise for the included plastic pedals which lack grip when wet, either changing to a metal version or a clipless pedal would be a great upgrade.

    While we’ve drawn plenty of similarities of the Marlin and Trek’s more expensive models, it’s important to be clear that you do get what you pay for. Yes, the Marlin offers proven geometry that serves as a strong foundation into mountain biking, but its high weight is the true limitation of the price point. If you can stretch to the X-Caliber, then the more refined frame is money well spent.
