Reviews over the

Trek Marlin 7 Gen 2

I've only ridden a little over 100 kilometers on it now, mainly on flat surfaces, and just missed one heavier gear, so I replaced the FSA 28t chainring for an FSA 34t chainring pretty quickly and now it's like having an extra heavy gear, perfect for descents and speed on flat stretches! Furthermore, there are enough light gears on it to climb pretty steep sections well. See photos for the difference of chainring. By the way, did not have to change the chain for the new chainring. A very nice bike so far. Hope to enjoy it for a long time and can really recommend the bike.

Pros & Cons

First but very good experience with mantle. I recommend it to everyone!!!

Pros & Cons

Lovely mountain bike to cross the single tracks in Nijmegen. Feels like a powerful stable bike. If there are many bumps/potholes in a single track, the bike sometimes springs a little less well. But I think this is the case with every Mtb. I do not have much experience with mbten. But for my first bought bike a great buy!

Easy maneuvering fine posture for cycling

Pros & Cons

The best money I've spent this year! It was time to replace my old 26" and I was expecting a trade-off and that this 29" would be faster but less maneuverable. Nothing could be further from the truth! I am much faster on flat stretches (nice quick ride out of town to get to the single tracks) AND much more maneuverable once in the woods. The tires are nice and have not once let me down in the Brabant sand in terms of grip. The front suspension runs nice and quiet and keeps me going well. The 1x10 is really worth the extra money compared to cheaper models with 2x8. Suddenly you have much more responsiveness, even on those little hills that pop up around corners. I would absolutely recommend this bike to beginners as well. This will give you a top start for your mountain biking experience and you won't have to worry about buying a new bike for the next few years. At the same time, there are no frills or upgrades on it that you as a beginner mountain biker won't be able to use or notice anyway. So you can be sure you won't spend a penny too much.

Pros & Cons

Fast delivery, mountain bike in the right size, top quality

Ordered this bike for my wife. Saddle adjusted and she cycled away on it in no time. Solid bike that can also be used on trials.

Pros & Cons

I have had it for about two weeks now and I really like it. Gears are just not enough for when you really want to go fast (down hills or with a fair wind on paved surfaces). I did have to get used to the saddle. In itself a good saddle, but if you don't have a lot of seat meat, it can be quite painful the first few rides.

Pros & Cons

Incredibly nice bike. The price-quality is very good. A lot of bike for your money. The fork is nice and stiff. Shifts perfectly. The clutch on the derailleur absolutely top. If I have to mention something. The brakes give a little less feeling. Are fine but in my opinion the least good.

Pros & Cons

A good bike for beginners, The weight makes it easy to do wheelies and bring the bike along, The front work you can control everything yourself but the chain sometimes comes off, The pedals words slip when wet and the saddle is hard and becomes irritating after 2-3 hrs of sitting on it

Pros & Cons

This is my first mountain bike and I am very happy with it. Rides light, shifts smoothly and brakes super. A winner.

Pros & Cons

A reasonably affordable bike with the quality and equipment of a much more expensive one. This bike is equipped with components that make it suitable for serious work, in short, an excellent bike with an excellent price-quality ratio. You can conquer all NL trails with this.

Pros & Cons

fine bike

The bike meets my expectations, price-quality very good.

Pros & Cons

Meets expectations

Super bike, only I still hear some noises (sometimes) from the brake. Sounds like a spoke is loose. Front brakes already recalibrated, will have to do the same at the back. Assume that the bike will then ride completely without "noises". Rides really wonderfully. Only one blade in front is really easy.

Pros & Cons

This mountain bike shifts nicely and is agile. You notice with cycling that it is well made. The only downside I have is that one of the cables is just too long and I sometimes tap it when pedalling. Highly recommended for the mountain biker looking for a quality bike at a good price!

Pros & Cons

Lovely bike, neat finish as you would expect from Trek. With a bit of luck I was able to get my hands on an M at the end of November. The 1x10 deore drivetrain has an excellent range for the tracks on the Utrechtse Heuvelrug and Den Treek.

Pros & Cons

very happy with the bike and very satisfied with the delivery and service

This mtb my son has enjoyed using. Ten rear gears and one front makes for easy shifting, a plus! The bike does have some weight to it but really all bikes in the price category do. It is agile and fast enough! Recommended.
