Style
The Marlin 6 is the perfect ride for progressing your skills on the trails. Its updated slacker frame geometry makes it easier to control on descents while the suspension fork takes the edge off bumpy trails. Integrated rack and kickstand mounts make it easy to add accessories to this versatile steed.

Loved the world over, the Marlin has long held the hearts of new riders and seasoned rippers alike, and to keep everyone rolling with ear-to-ear grins we've revamped it with more trail confidence than ever. Whether zipping through town, dipping your toes into the trail for the first time or slicing through switchbacks as a well-seasoned rider, you'll appreciate the sleek new frame that ups the capability and brings looks to match. There's a reason why it's always been your favourite.

It's right for you if...
You want a trail bike that's dialled for building confidence on the dirt, and versatile enough for commuting to work or school.

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. A front suspension fork that cushions rocks, roots and bumps in the trail, 10-speed fuss-free Shimano Deore shifting and the serious stopping power of hydraulic disc brakes.

Highlights:
- 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. A bike's geometry is the defining framework it's built on, and the Marlin is a true mountain bike at it's core. Its measurements are perfectly dialled to give you a confidence-inspiring, planted feel when you're rolling down steep and bumpy trails, while keeping it easy to pedal back to the top when you're ready for another lap.
- A new Thru-Skew axle provides better rear wheel security, holding your wheel in place snugly and ensuring it doesn't slip out of the frame, even when you're rolling through rough-and-tumble terrain.
- Full-length, full-coverage guards on the chainstay protect your frame and keep your ride quiet.
- Bigger 2.4" tyres elevate traction, so you stay planted on dusty switchbacks. But not only do bigger tyres give you more grip - they also soak up bumps for a smoother ride.
- Lifetime warranty: built to last, the Marlin is backed by Trek's limited lifetime warranty.
- The Shimano Deore 1x drivetrain gives you all the gears you need, and none you don't.
- Powerful Tektro hydraulic disc brakes give excellent control and feel.
- Terrain-smoothing SR Suntour forks with lockout function for more efficient climbing and road riding.
- The right fit: available in a wide range of eight frame sizes, ranging from XS to XXL, there's a Marlin for anyone, at any height. This is the widest size range in the industry.
Smart Wheel Size ensures every rider gets the fastest wheel that fits.
Marlin Smart Wheel Size
Extra small and small frames have 27.5" wheels, short-reach brake levers and narrower handlebars that make it easier for riders with smaller hands to stay in control.
Medium and above frame sizes have 29" (29er) wheels. The 29ers gain from Trek's vast experience with bigger wheel sizes, and feature advanced frame geometry and a custom offset fork to give you brilliant handling: precise at low speed without compromising high-speed stability.
The right wheel size paired with your frame size gives you the perfect combination of responsiveness and control. Everyone wins.

Upgrades from Marlin 5:
- Updated aluminium frame with modern trail riding geometry
- Shimano Deore 1x10 gearing
- Secure Thru-Skew rear axle
- Full-coverage chainstay protection
- Bontrager Kovee tubeless ready rims
- Wider 2.4" tyres for more grip, stability and comfort
