Trek Marlin 7 my first hardtail mountain bike - I love it

[@BonithKhuong]

Nice review! What is the model of the seat ?

[@WhyBuy]

Thank you for the feedback and the seat brand is Selle Royal. Thanks for watching!

[@leninmercedes6567]

I have a Trek Marlin 7 2020 Emerald Green. Love it

[@WhyBuy]

Thank you for the feedback!

[@mikeogden5256]

I just got one in yellow orange 🍊 and it has exceeded My expectations

[@tonepolice]

Same here a Marlin 7 in Emerald Green from 2020. Love mine too. Good for city commutes and light trails.

[@mikeogden5256]

I was amazed at how fast it is and how well it shifts gears ⚙️

[@Invictus4318]

Just got my 2023 Trek Marlin 7 in Marrigold/Radioactive red colour. Your right about how aesthetically pleasing it is, I can’t stop looking at it 😍

[@WhyBuy]

Congrats, that's awesome to hear! Thank you for sharing feedback, and thanks for watching 👍

[@hotrockin197]

Nice bike & those kryptonite locks are excellent, smackhead proof 👍👊😅

[@E-MTBs]

I have one. It is a big leap from department store bikes. As you go up from there, for us casual riders, the law of diminishing returns kicks in. The clutch on the derailer keeps the chain tight. I ride mine on desert mountain trails, roads, and gravel.

Thank you for the feedback, and thanks for watching 👍

Hi.Trek Marlin 7 year 2020 is worth €500. Excellent condition. Worth buying. Greetings from Slovenia

[@lonestarcollectiblezcom2602]

Great review, thank you, can I ask what the brand is for your bike carrier for your SUV? I need one and like your design, looks pretty easy to onboard/offboard the bike! Thank you very much, happy pedaling. Brian

[@WhyBuy]

Thank you for the feedback, and sorry for the late reply here. The bike rack is actually one from costco (can't remember the name) thanks for watching 👍 check out the Yakima hitch rack video we did, might help if you are still looking for a good bike rack 👍

[@karmakencho4622]

I couldn't see any difference on2021 m7 and 2022 marlin 7

I just got mine yesterday and I am going on my first ride today!

Congratulations! enjoy the ride, and thank you for the feedback 👍

[@mahalekamgeluca3841]

I got the orange color one and yes I waited 6 months

[@WhyBuy]

Thanks for the feedback, and thanks for watching 👍

[@andyjame6351]

very satisfied with this product

[@wooj82]

I've never seen a lock mounted horizontally behind the saddle, doesn't it catch the back of your legs when pedalling? I'd have it vertically mounted if possible to keep the profile minimal. I'd also use a cable with the D lock to secure the wheels :)

[@WhyBuy]

So far so good, never had issues when I ride, but then again, I'm just riding around the city. Thank you for the feedback, and thanks for watching 👍

[@etxkevin7452]

I just bought this bike. What tire pressure should the tires be (mine are a bit under)??? Also, can you raise the handlebar height at all?

[@E-MTBs]

30 lbs

[@ertai222]

@@E-MTBs you mean 30psi?

[@E-MTBs]

@@ertai222 lol yes!

[@clay_does_stuff]

Best thing you can do regarding the seat comfort is to invest in a proper pair of bike shorts. Its the easiest way to turn tough 2 hour rides into easy 6 hour rides.

[@WhyBuy]

That's a great suggestion, thank you for the feedback, and thank you for watching 👍

[@jbloggs751]

Any recommendations?

[@iamcyberpunk68]

factory seat is great

[@grumpy-dad3701]

I was hoping to upgrade Scott aspect 940 ( loved that bike ) to a 1x10. It then got stolen about 2 weeks ago. The trek marlin 7 was in my price range with a 1x10. I do like it & it feels solid. I do like the seat

[@WhyBuy]

Sorry to hear about that. It's been a great ride so far, obviously would recommend the Trek with some bias haha Thank you for the feedback, and thanks for watching 👍

[@renaissancemaneric8019]

I just found one missing the front wheel and super rusted off of FB marketplace for $100

[@g3givinggaminggrilling771]

btw is a mountain bike for trail riding so its gonna have a small and thin seat because on trails you arent really sitting

[@WhyBuy]

Great point, and the seat really isn't a gripe with the Trek Marlin 7, it is a great bike. Seat was just a simple fix for my preference or riding. Thank you for the feedback and thanks for watching 👍

[@jefftc14]

lol dude we had the exact same bike buying experience, had it all picked out and couldn't find it to save my life and missed it by a couple weeks

[@WhyBuy]

That's crazy, I'm sure there's a lot of people who were in the same boat. The demand for these, and a lot of bikes actually, went through the roof but so happy to have mine finally. Thanks for the feedback, and thank's for watching 👍

[@timharris2497]

Nice bike ... What’s the fame size of your bike ?

[@WhyBuy]

I think it's large, thanks for watching! 👍

[@TomerBenDavid]

Sounds like dual sport would suit you better

[@자유인돈조르바]

Good ㅎㅎ

[@theowickenden8174]

1x10 gear set slips 2 rides in ! on 10th gear ( on the road)! common issue with this bike it appears . If I had the chance I would have thrown my money away on something else. Sure it looks good but for me what's the point is it don't work. !

[@WhyBuy]

Thanks for your feedback theo, we appreciate the heads up. Have you been in touch with Trek at all about this? Wondering if there is a fix or way to prevent the gears from slipping. Haven't noticed the issue on our end, but if you find anything, let us know!

[@fordmustang5763]

Get the gears adjusted smart one…that’ll fix your issue

[@bikevlogadventure3263]

Nice..

[@joen3992]

This is a 1299 Canadian bike, NOT a 600 dollar bike. You sound like you bought bikes at either Sportchek or Canadian Tire.....major upgrade in a ride!

[@vinothdavid4663]

Which one best bro trek marlin 7 or polygon xtrada 6 1 *11

[@WhyBuy]

Not sure, haven't tried the polygon. Let us know if you get a chance!

[@jonahcarter7705]

I got a trek marlin 7 and I rode it 8.5 miles on the first day. Some on road some in dirt but basically if of it was on road. I see some small scratches on the front fork is that normal? They are not chips just small scratches. Is it damaging

[@MrWhitmen1981]

It’s a mountain bike dude. 🤣

[@marcusfolkes5491]

can you raise the handle bar?

I just stuff mine into my suv

[@johnchristian1444]

What size ?

[@WhyBuy]

This is a large size bike. For me being about 6' and 180 lbs., I could have gone medium or large, I think the medium would have felt to small for me. Hope this helps!
