It's right for you if...
You want a boost of power on the trail without spending an arm and a leg. You love the trail-to-town capability of the Marlin and want a ride that helps you ride a little faster or pedal further.
The tech you get
An Alpha Gold Aluminium frame with real mountain bike geometry and a coil-sprung 120 mm fork. A reliable Bosch Active Line Plus 50Nm drive system capable of assisting you to speeds of 32 km/h. A compact Purion 200 remote with built-in display. Plus, hydraulic disc brakes and a 9-speed Shimano CUES drivetrain that performs well, even under load.
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.
