It's right for you if...

You're new to the trail but have serious singletrack aspirations, and want a race-worthy mountain bike with touchpoints designed for women and upgrades on the parts that make a big difference in performance, like a higher quality suspension fork.

The tech you get

The flagship model of the Marlin lineup has a lightweight Alpha Silver Aluminum frame with internal derailleur routing to protect your cables and add to the bike's sleek look, a high-quality RockShox fork with a lockout feature and 100mm of travel, a 27-speed drivetrain, and a low-profile Shimano Shadow rear derailleur that's made to avoid snagging on trail debris. The quality fork and parts make Marlin 7 Women's fully capable of taking on off-road marathon rides and XC races.

The final word

The RockShox suspension and wider range of gearing make it the best choice in the Marlin lineup for new mountain bikers who know they want a serious bike for their money.

The Walkthrough

favorite_borderWhy you'll love it

  1. All the value, plus all the versatility—it's a totally race-worthy mountain bike, with rear rack mounts if you use it for commuting too
  2. It's really fun to ride, and feels like a much more expensive mountain bike
  3. Marlin Women's models in 13.5˝ and 15.5˝ frame sizes have a curved top tube and a lower standover height that makes it easier for smaller riders to mount and dismount
  4. Like every model in the Marlin family, it's backed by Trek's lifetime warranty

Features

Will my bike have a curved top tube?

Smaller frames (13.5˝ and 15.5˝) have a top tube that dips down as it approaches the seat tube. This design makes for a lower standover height, which is good for shorter riders because it allows them to straddle their bike more easily. The larger frames (17.5˝ and 18.5˝) have a straight top tube because taller riders with longer legs typically don’t have the same issues with standover height.

Internal cable routing

We route shift and brake cables through the frame to keep things clean and simple. And it looks great, too.

Rack mounts

Going for a long ride? Rack mounts make carrying accessories a breeze.

Smart Wheel Size

The right wheel size paired with your frame size gives you the perfect combination of responsiveness and control.

Dropper post internal routing

Not ready for an internally routed dropper post now, but want to keep your options open? Select frames are equipped with the proper entry and exit points to accommodate internal routing for a Stealth seat post.

Extended size range

A wider range of sizes than the industry standard provides more option for everyone, from tallest to shortest and all those in between. Because everyone deserves a great ride.

G2 Geometry

Advanced frame geometry and a custom offset fork give our 29ers precise handling at low speed without compromising high-speed stability. We call it G2 Geometry, and it's why our 29ers handle better than anyone's.

Alpha Silver Aluminum

Our proprietary lightweight aluminum is continuously cold extruded to a single wall thickness for durable performance.

WSD: fit for women

A great-fitting bike is a joy to ride. The better the fit, the greater your comfort, stability, power, and control. And nothing fits better than Trek WSD, Women’s Specific Design. Your perfect ride starts here.
