With its Alpha Silver Aluminium frame, Trek brings you a lightweight yet sturdy platform built with longer, slacker trail geometry for better handling and control, whether you’re navigating tight switchbacks or speeding downhill.The real upgrade here is the RockShox Judy Silver fork, which uses a Solo Air spring and 100mm of travel to soak up rocks, roots and ruts, with rebound adjustment and a TurnKey hydraulic lockout for added efficiency on smoother sections. It’s a big step up from coil-sprung forks often found in this category.Paired with the fork is a SRAM SX Eagle 12-speed drivetrain, giving you the same wide-range 11–50T cassette found on more expensive bikes. It offers reliable shifting and enough low gears to conquer climbs with ease, backed by SRAM’s 1x simplicity and rugged reliability.Stopping power is handled by Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes, offering great modulation and control in all conditions. Meanwhile, Maxxis Ardent 2.4″ tyres provide serious grip on loose terrain, and are fitted to tubeless-ready Bontrager Kovee rims for those who want to upgrade to lower pressures and fewer flats.The Marlin 7 Gen 3 also brings commuter practicality thanks to rack, mudguard and kickstand mounts, and internal cable routing makes it easy to add a dropper post for more confident descending. Smaller frame sizes (XXS and XS) include a curved top tube for easier mounting and dismounting, making this bike accessible to a wide range of riders.Whether you’re hitting the trail for the first time or levelling up from a starter hardtail, the Trek Marlin 7 Gen 3 offers impressive performance where it counts.
