Violently uncontrolled fork and blunt frame lead a list of reasons that Trek’s Marlin is best kept away from real off roading. Buy if you're a glutton for punishment looking to get into mountain biking
Size-specific wheels, range of paint jobs available
Punishingly stiff frame and handlebars, undamped fork, some poor finishing kit

This was the first mountain bike I bought, and as my skills progressed, so did the components. Rockshox fork, specialized knobbies, crank brothers ped
i loved the feel in the cockpit. Feels right.
