A hardtail mountain bike for everyday riders and first-time trail explorers who want a suspension fork, hydraulic disc brakes and 9-speed shifting, on a bike that works as well for the commute as for the dirt trail.
Overview
The Marlin 5 Gen 3 is a trail-worthy daily rider built for everyday adventures, on and off the trail. Its Alpha Silver Aluminium frame has internal derailleur and dropper post routing, along with rack and kickstand mounts, so it works as a comfortable, stable commuter that still has the ruggedness of a real mountain bike.
The build is focused on the parts that matter on rough ground. An SR Suntour XCT 30 suspension fork with hydraulic lockout takes the edge off rough surfaces, a 9-speed Shimano CUES drivetrain with an 11-46 LinkGlide cassette covers steep and flat terrain, and Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes provide the stopping power. Bontrager Connection wheels roll on Bontrager Montrose Comp 2.40-inch tires.
Smart Wheel Size puts smaller frames on 27.5-inch wheels and larger frames on 29-inch wheels. This colorway is available in S, M, M/L, L and XL.
Why You'll Like It
The fastest wheel size for your frame
Smart Wheel Size matches wheel size to frame size, with 27.5-inch wheels on the S and 29-inch wheels on M to XL, so you are on the fastest wheel that fits.
A suspension fork you can lock out
The SR Suntour XCT 30 fork has a coil spring, preload adjustment and a hydraulic lockout, with 100mm of travel. It smooths out rough surfaces, and the lockout keeps the bike efficient on smooth pavement.
A durable, wide-range drivetrain
Shimano CUES was developed around trouble-free drivetrain longevity and performance. Paired with the 11-46 LinkGlide cassette and a 32T chainring, the 9-speed setup gives you low gears for climbs and higher gears for flat roads.
Hydraulic disc brakes for confident stopping
Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes give controlled stopping power on descents, on loose surfaces and in wet conditions.
Clean routing and useful mounts
Internal shift cable and brake hose routing is a feature usually found on more expensive bikes. It gives a neat look and helps protect cables from the elements, while the rack and kickstand mounts add everyday practicality.
Who Is It For?
The Marlin 5 is a strong first mountain bike for riders who want to try trail riding without a steep learning curve. The suspension fork, wide gear range and hydraulic disc brakes make trail riding approachable from day one.
It also makes an excellent everyday bike. Rack and kickstand mounts, a stable frame and 2.40-inch tires suit daily commutes, and the suspension fork and wide tires help on broken roads, speed breakers and rough patches common on Indian city streets.
For weekend riders, it is ready for cross-country trails, fire roads and park paths, with enough capability to keep improving your skills as the terrain gets tougher.
Good to Know
Check the size chart before ordering. The S has 27.5-inch wheels, and sizes M and above have 29-inch wheels.
The fork's preload adjustment lets you tune the suspension to your body weight and riding style, and the lockout is handy when you are riding on smooth roads.
The rack and kickstand mounts make it easy to add a rear rack and stand for commuting or touring.
The wheels use Schrader valves, so you can inflate the tires with most standard pumps.
