Trek's Marlin+ 8 electric mountain bike opens up a world of trail possibilities, combining proven hardtail performance with reliable electric assistance to help you ride further and tackle more challenging terrain with confidence. Whether you're exploring local woodland trails, conquering steep climbs that once seemed daunting, or simply extending your riding adventures, this capable e-MTB delivers the perfect balance of power and practicality.

Built around Trek's trusted Alpha Gold Aluminium frame, the Marlin+ 8 provides a solid foundation for both trail exploration and everyday riding. The frame features internal cable routing for clean aesthetics and reduced maintenance, whilst integrated mounts for mudguards, kickstand, and rear rack add practical versatility for riders who want to use their bike beyond pure trail riding.

At the heart of the riding experience lies the dependable Bosch Active Line Plus motor, delivering 50Nm of torque with smooth, natural power delivery that enhances your pedalling rather than overwhelming it. This proven motor system provides the climbing assistance needed to tackle steep gradients with ease, whilst maintaining an intuitive feel that keeps you connected to the trail. The 400Wh Bosch CompactTube battery integrates neatly into the frame design, offering sufficient range for substantial rides whilst maintaining the bike's balanced handling characteristics.

Trail performance gets a significant boost from the RockShox Recon Silver RL suspension fork, which absorbs trail impacts with 120mm of travel on most frame sizes. This capable fork features Solo Air spring technology and Motion Control damping, providing smooth, controlled suspension action that enhances comfort and maintains traction across varied terrain. The lockout function allows you to firm up the fork for efficient climbing or road sections, maximising pedalling efficiency when needed.

Gear changes are handled by Shimano's reliable Deore 12-speed drivetrain, offering wide-range gearing that covers everything from technical climbs to flowing descents. The Deore M6100 rear derailleur delivers crisp, precise shifts across the broad 10-51T cassette, ensuring you'll always find the right gear for the terrain ahead. This proven drivetrain combination provides the reliability and performance needed for regular trail use.

Confident stopping power comes from Shimano's 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes, featuring 203mm rotors that provide excellent heat dissipation and consistent performance. These powerful brakes offer the control and confidence needed for technical descents, whilst their progressive feel allows for precise modulation in varied conditions.

The Marlin+ 8 rolls on tubeless-ready Bontrager Gunnison Pro XR tyres, mounted on robust Bontrager Line TLR 30 rims that are ready for tubeless conversion straight from the box. The 2.60" tyre width provides excellent traction and stability, whilst the aggressive tread pattern delivers reliable grip across diverse trail surfaces from hardpack to loose terrain.

Adding to the bike's trail credentials, the TranzX dropper seatpost enables quick saddle height adjustments on the fly, allowing you to optimise your riding position for climbing efficiency or descending control without stopping. This feature proves invaluable when transitioning between different types of terrain, enhancing both performance and rider confidence.

Perfect for riders seeking an accessible entry point into electric mountain biking, or experienced cyclists wanting to extend their range and tackle new challenges, the Marlin+ 8 combines quality components with Trek's proven hardtail design to deliver years of reliable trail performance.
