Used to do MTB and Roady. About 50/50.
@@rodtoler I bought a road bike a couple of years ago, and it just sat. I rode it like 4 or 5 times and never could get into it. I much more enjoy mountain biking, even if it's just urban exploration.
@@o3djeeps My roady is a Specialized Roubaix all carbon fibre. Hands dow the most comfortable ride on any bike. Specialized's vibration absorbing "zerts" in the seat post, forks and chain stay , BG fitting and amazing saddle make all the difference. My MTB is a a 2005 Gary Fisher Paragon 29er. A techno marvel of its day. No all good bike have 29" wheels, hydraulic disc breaks and suspension. I have ridden it in 11 different countries (Navy). I even downhilled Mt. Vesuvius on it. Dang, I need to get back into it.
o3djeeps [ OVERCLOCK3D Jeeps ] MTBing is just as addictive as wheeling! Same concepts as well, finding your lines with the right momentum.
@@r1xterra855 Most MTB parts are cheaper. LOL
The only guy that I’ve seen actually mountain bike with this bike thank you so much. Plz keep mountain biking you’ve earned a sub
Finally an actual video of Trek M7 on the trail. This is what I'm looking for to be sure that I will not regret buying This bike.
I'm a MTN Biker and loved the video, incorporate some more of that please 👍🤘😜
I have a trek marlin 7 2019 and it is a Beauty I’ve done black Dimond trails on it and just yesterday I finished my first double black Dimond trail on it.
SuperBaycool man, tell me this is true! I am thinking about buying one tomorrow. Thought about the 5, but talked myself into the upgrades upfront with the 7. Were you considering anything else at this price point? Any concerns with the 7 so far?
David Bartsch Well it’s the best bike I’ve ever owned till this day. I’ve had it for around 9 months. The only upgrades I’ve done are I upgraded the pedals and the front tire to a Maxxis ardent 2.40 tryer. I onestly think the marlin 7 has a heaps good looking frame as well it can take some big crashes. I’ve had no problem with it and I would shorly recommended to all my friends. I got one of my mates to get the marlin 7 and he loves it. I think the marlin 7 it heaps good for the price, it’s heaps better then the talons 3 as well the Norco storm. This bikes the best you can get for this price point.
SuperBaycool Ok. Now I’m back to maybe just getting a Marlin 6. Is the $150 more worth it for the 7 (only upgrade looking to be the shock really)? Also, I’d be tempted by the 2020 models which are both 2x gears. See any issue with that?
David Bartsch I originally was going to get the marlin 5 but then I wanted more geers and it was so much worth the more gears. I demolish my friend with a marlin 5 on climbs. The shock is amazing I didn’t think a coil fork from rock shox could perform this well.
Wow so you think a 2020 trek marlin 6 is suited for diamond backs? Skill also weights in to the outcome correct? I'm just asking because I see a lot of dudes with 2k 3k 4k thousand dollar bikes strolling through diamond back trails only
I just bought a Marlin 7 in emerald iris yesterday. Can’t wait to ride it. I just got into mtn biking myself. I had no idea it was so much fun. I wish I would have started sooner! Jeeps and mtn bikes are the best! Great video.
Newb here. Had to get off dirt bikes , hurt too much. Just got into mtn biking. Love it ! My new passion.
I am from germany, so sorry for my bad english! ;-) I came here in research for Trek Marlin Bike Series test rides, because i wanted to buy the little cheaper version (Marlin 5) for a new beginning after 20 years of mountainbiking abstinence! My doctor said, i have to do sports, to lose weight, but i can´t imagine to sit on a spinning bike inside of a gym, so i decided to go outside... real world, real nature, real wind in my hair!!! ;-)
Your Video from the great performance of TREK Bikes, was the last step for my descision to buy the TREK Marlin 5 to start a new and healthier life! I´m turnin 50 next year and i wanted to reach 80 or more!!! ;-)
EDIT: Your Jeep is also amazing! But i think it´s too big for the small german streets! ;-)
Thank you for that amazing Video and nice greets from germany!
How much is the trek Marlin 5 near you?
Great video,!! Would definitely like to see more Mountain biking videos.🚵🏼♂️👍🏼
watched the vid for the MTB footage, but sweet Jeep too man
Nice video ha ha you just beat the rain in.👍😸 Looked like a blast.
Will the Trek Marlin 7 2021 do well on advanced trails at Swinley Forest in England?
That Jeep is SICK bro!!! And awesome choice of bike too 😎
Awesome video! Good way to stay healthy & in shape. Stay safe!
Nice video, Chris. Good to see a change up. I may have to get off my butt and knock the dust off of my bikes. (I have 5). Haven’t ridden since I retired from the Navy. Wifey keeps reminding me of the $$$$ hanging from the rack in the Garage. ;) . #inspired
I've been getting lazier as each year passes. I've never been into "fitness". I get bored exercising just for the sake of exercising. But this has proven to be enjoyable so hopefully I can stick with it.
Just got a 2021 Trek Marlin 7 over the weekend. Its the first bike I've owned in around 17 years.
Nice bike. I have a Trek Dual Sport but now looking at getting a Marlin series bike. Sounded like your back end was taking a beating on that trail. (Sounds just like my bike). Maybe if I upgrade my tires on my DS it would be similar to the Marlin.
Hey what bike rack and phone mount are you using? Post links? Also getting into mtb and just purchased two trek marlin 7s for me and my boy.
Have you been up to White Clay/Middle Run in Delaware? I'd be happy to show you around.
Gordon Roth awesome trails man!👍
If I can ever make it... I'll def take you up on it.
Gordon Roth i'm looking for a guide to WC. I live in Philly and can do a weekend trip
Most Saturday mornings 10am at Papermill Park. Check the map at "KenCoxMap".
What Trek is that you ride? I have the Marlin 7 1x and love it. Perfect for climbing.
Looks like fun. That phone mount must be a good one.
It's pretty nice.
wow , you really got lucky it didnt start to rain in the track :)
You are so cool and a great guy helping to fix the Jeep, I have a Jeep Wrangler Sahara 2001 and also a old Trek 5000 mountain bike, I did a lot mountain Bike years a go but I want to start again but I don’t want to broke my 49 years old bones but really fun means take the risk and mountain bike right?
By the way thanks for your cool videos and if we really love jeeps we love doing outdoors sports 💚
Looked like a great workout
Where can I find that phone mount? Great video!
Jeeping and mtb in MD awesome video
Been mountain biking since 1989 so I love this. I have mountain biking videos on my channel as well as Jeep videos. Haven't been to Patapsco in years. What area were you riding? I need to get back down there. I'm in Cecil County so I ride Fairhill and White Clay Creek a lot.
What kind of bike rack did you have? Name model? Do they make a double bike carrier?
I have same exact bike but I’m not really a mountain biker. I ride on packed trails with it for distance. I really struggle with it on singletrack.
What weigh have this bike and what size ?
Just got a Roscoe 8 and I love it!
I have trek marlin 7 and I’m wondering with cable routing inside does yours rattle a lot as my marlin 7 rattles very very loud
Love the video. You should do more.
I have a dilemma. Should I go for the Marlin 7 which is the highest
level Marlin or, should I go for the Roscoe 6 which is £200 more.
I
do community via the canal and go on road also. I like to go into
woody areas up and downhill when I have the chance also. If I got the
Marlin 7, would I be missing out by not getting the roscoe 6. Would I
damage the bike if I had a Marlin 7 when going through woody, bumpy
areas? My fear is that by getting the Marlin 7 instead of getting the
roscoe 6 I will be missing out on the possibility of a much better bike.
Is £700 instead of £500 though really worth it for what I am wanting
to do?
Does anyone know what app he was referring to?
@o3djeeps have you done the creeper trail in Damascus VA?
I was recently thinking of just getting a bike to ride around for moderate exercise at walmart and now I'm hooked on these videos and went to look at a talus 2 today and gonna go look at a marlin 6&7 tomorrow......I got to thinking what am I getting my self into?? Guys. Do you think at 50 im to old to get a nice bike like that to get started or am I just too old period. Any tips? Thank you
Me 2 no just start slow and ease your way into it!
@@pdolf16 I will do that, thank you. I ended up picking up a like new 24 speed cannondale adventure the other day that feels pretty comfortable with a more upright position. I think it only weighs about 21lbs with the 700c wheels. It came tuned with new tires, front and rear lights and an air pump so I dont have any excuses now lol. I do have to figure out changing the gears. Yes it's been a very long time😬
Looks fun!
What app did you say you used?
What is the name of the app to map the road?
Should I go for Trek marlin 7 or Cannondale trail 5 ..... Can any one suggest me about it...? And the difference between these two bikes.
I can hear the rear derailed clanking back there! I had the same problem with my Marlin. Check out my 1x12 NX conversion on my channel.
hahaha already done... you should check out my series on the conversion! lol ruclips.net/p/PL8BZZWtQNstpqKGdrurfmTkchlCsmEbVb
Hi I have a 2021 marlin 7 and wondering if I can put 29x2.6 tires?
2.4 is max in the back. I too have a marlin 7 up front you might be able to do the 2.6
Where is that forest?
Wast this after the Marlin upgrades? What size tires are you using? thanks
I love mtb and i love the vid
Just picked up a marlin 6 in the slate color
Great video mate
Should I buy this bike?
Wait. Are you sure that’s not a Marlin 6? I don’t think the Marlin 7 comes in that slate gray color. Unless I’m missing something. Either way, great choice of bike!
Edit: Never mind, it looks like you have a 2019 Marlin 7 which does come in that color 👍🏾
Yeah... actually one of the main reasons I went with it... Now that you've seen my Jeep you can probably tell why! lol I have another channel with most of the MTB content, if you want to check it out. I've been riding my Canyon Strive mostly, but still have that Marlin, although it's been completely re-done! ruclips.net/channel/UCZk4fbKxKQx4PjLjHHysPow
o3djeeps [ OVERCLOCK3D Jeeps ] That’s awesome! I’m subbing both channels. I like watching off-roading and MTB stuff so keep that content coming! Stay safe out there bro 😎👍🏾
Great video
Couldn’t help but notice that the fork on ur mountain bike is different than my marlin 7 fork. What fork it that because I want to upgrade my fork.
It's a Manitou Markhor.
What was the name of that app? Commute?
IS THIS us or canada?
I’m a newbie to MTB’s and I have a question, is this bike lightweight?
What kind of phone holder do you use ?

Sir Why are you not ridding bike all the way from your place to the park instead of carrying the bike and driving. I guess Marlin 7 also can be ridden on the road
as well.
I get trek marlin 7 2020
I dare you to bike down Black Bear Pass :)
Hahaha. Nope. Lol
Just 2 things. #1 it’s your channel if you want to show putting a new battery in a Barbie Jeep “ just do it” #2 I am so out of shape I am tired watching the video. lol 😂
Hahaha. Barbie Jeep videos coming soon.... 🤣🤣
