Marlin 5 Women's is a trail-worthy daily ride that's perfectly suited for everyday adventures, on and off the trail.

It's right for you if...
You're new to the trail, and you're looking for great value on a real mountain bike that can double as a commuter.
The tech you get
A lightweight aluminium frame with internal shift cable and brake hose routing to protect your cables and add to the bike's sleek look, 21 speeds, a wide range of gearing for big hills, hydraulic disc brakes, a suspension fork that takes the edge off bumps and rough terrain and a saddle designed for women.
The final word
It's built in Trek's MTB heritage, making it more than capable of taking on trail adventures. But it's also versatile, and Marlin 5 Women's is a popular ride on college campuses because the rack and kickstand mounts make it easy to accessorise and haul a load.
