Next-Level Trail Versatility. Everyday Ride Ready.
The 2026 Trek Marlin 6 Gen 3 is a high-value hardtail mountain bike designed to take you from urban commutes to fire-road escapes without missing a beat. Presented in standout finishes—Lava, Gloss Lavender Haze and Matte Lichen → Keswick Green Fade—this bike combines trail-worthy geometry with practical features that make it equally at home in town or on singletrack.
Engineered Geometry for All-Round Control
The lightweight aluminium frame offers modern trail geometry including a more relaxed head angle and increased reach for confidence at speed and on descents. Smaller sizes use 27.5-inch wheels for easier handling, while medium and larger sizes sport 29-inch wheels to improve rollover and momentum. With internal cable routing and built-in mounts for racks, fenders and kickstands, the Marlin 6 Gen 3 is as practical for everyday use as it is ready for adventure.
Reliable Components and Trail-Friendly Features
The SR Suntour XCT or comparable coil fork offers 100 mm (or 80 mm on smaller frames) of travel with hydraulic lock-out for efficient pedalling on smoother surfaces. A 10-speed Shimano drivetrain delivers a wide gear range and dependable shifting whether you’re climbing singletrack or navigating city hills. The hydraulic disc brakes deliver consistent stopping power when conditions get rough or wet.
From Gravel Paths to Pavement, Ready Out of the Box
With included mounts for racks, mudguards and kickstand the Marlin 6 Gen 3 transitions easily from trail-day to weekday ride. The generous tyre clearance and trail-capable frame mean you’re prepared for dirt, rocks, roots or city cracks without compromise.
