Style
Soar up trails, through town and everywhere in between with the ultimate do-anything e-MTB. The Marlin+ is an electric hardtail that gives you all the versatility you crave and adds in a simple boost for flattening climbs and cruising with ease. It packs in the electric mountain bike features that matter most, like a Bosch drive unit and a confident and capable bike frame - without the hefty price tag. Marlin+ is ready to roll everywhere from the dusty singletrack to bustling commutes. Are you ready to get hooked?

The Marlin+ 8 is an electric mountain bike that's ready to up your game on the trail. Its Bosch Active Line Plus motor gives you just the boost you need for getting up steep climbs and riding further, and doesn't break the bank, and a 120mm suspension fork keeps handling smooth through the rough stuff. Upgraded components, like wide tubeless-ready wheels and tyres and a 12-speed Shimano drivetrain make this a trail-savvy ride that's ready to go anywhere.


Electric bikes are the most fun when you're focused on the ride and not the controls. The Marlin+ is built around that idea - the bike is loaded with technology that disappears underneath you when you're riding, so you don't have to fuss with settings and can just enjoy the ride.




It's right for you if...
A boost of power is just what you're after, but you don't drain the bank account. You want plenty of gears for riding all kinds of trails, and the flat protection offered by wide 2.6 inch tubeless-ready wheels and tyres.

The tech you get
An Alpha Platinum Aluminium frame with real mountain bike geometry and an air-sprung 120mm RockShox Recon Silver RL fork. A reliable Bosch Active Line Plus 50 Nm drive system capable of assisting you to speeds of 15.5 mph/25 kph. A compact Purion 200 remote with built in display and 400 Wh Powertube battery. You get 12-speed Shimano Deore shifting, hydraulic disc brakes and wide, 2.6 in tubeless-ready wheels that boost grip and help prevent flats.


Highlights:
- Marlin+ brings the same value, versatility and performance that makes the analogue Marlin so popular. The geometry closely aligns with the Marlin to provide a better trail experience while providing pedal assistance by Bosch, the most trusted name in electric assist systems.
- The 120mm suspension keeps your ride feeling smooth through bumps, roots and rough stuff.
- Trail-savvy geometry keeps handling easy and confident from singletrack to city streets.
- Tons of rack and mudguard mounts let you customise your ride for the trail or taking on daily commutes.
- Smooth, quiet support: Bosch Active Line Plus mid-power motor doles out a smooth 50 Nm of torque. Its controlled acceleration, low pedal resistance and super-quiet operation give you a natural-feeling, unobtrusive ride.
- The Marlin+ is easy to use with simple controls and intuitive support, so you can focus on the ride ahead, not complicated remotes: the Bosch Purion 200 is a 2-in-1 remote and display that provides all the information and control you'll need in a compact, full-colour handlebar controller with intuitive controls.
- AUTO mode adaptive motor support recognises speed reductions and adjusts assistance automatically - it's a simple, set-and-forget mode.
- Top-tier batteries: the cells in Trek e-bike batteries come only from Tier 1 suppliers, which means that they're from companies that have the highest requirements for quality, the best documentation, the longest qualification timelines and the most experience manufacturing. Each battery also has a sophisticated battery management system (BMS), which is like a security guard for the battery's cells.
- The internal Bosch CompactTube 400 watt-hour battery is fixed in the downtube, where it's clear from the elements. Its high energy density allows for a slim and sleek profile, while an easy-to-use charge port makes topping it up a cinch.
- Range of up to 4 hours on the trail (for an interactive guide to typical ranges between each charges of the battery go to the Bosch eBike Range Assistant here).
- Need even more range? Easy, add the Bosch PowerMore range extender.
- The right fit: Extra small and small frames have 27.5" wheels and narrower handlebars that make it easier for smaller riders to stay in control. Extra small frames also have a curved top tube for a lower standover.
Medium and above frame sizes have 29" (29er) wheels. The 29ers gain from Trek's vast experience with bigger wheel sizes, and feature advanced frame geometry and a custom offset fork to give you brilliant handling: precise at low speed without compromising high-speed stability.
The right wheel size paired with your frame size gives you the perfect combination of responsiveness and control. Everyone wins.

Upgrades from Marlin+ 6:
- Rockshox Recon Silver RL air fork
- 12-speed Shimano drivetrain
- 4-piston Shimano brakes
- Dropper post
- Bontrager Line TLR 30 tubeless ready wheels
- Bontrager Gunnison Pro XR Tubeless Ready tyres

The final word
The Marlin+ is the go-to for riders looking to dip their toes into the electric mountain bike world. Its trail-savvy frame gives you confident control, and a Bosch Active Line Plus motor offers enough power to take the burn out of long climbs.
