• Marlin 5 Gen 2

Trek Marlin 5 Gen 2 - 2023

Marlin 5 is a trail-worthy daily rider that's perfectly suited for everyday adventures, on and off the trail. A suspension fork, 2x8 drivetrain, and mounts for a rack and kickstand make it an ideal choice for new trail riders or anyone looking for a comfortable, stable commuter with the ruggedness of a real mountain bike. It's right for you if... You're new to the trail, and you're looking for a real mountain bike that doubles as a commuter—and you want it all at an exceptional value. The tech you get A lightweight aluminum frame with internal routing to protect your cables and add to the bike's sleek look, 2x8 drivetrain, a wide range of gearing so you always have the right gear for your terrain, powerful hydraulic disc brakes, and a terrain-smoothing suspension fork with a lockout. The final word Marlin 5 is a great ride for all your adventures. But it's also versatile, and Marlin 5 is a popular ride on college campuses, because the rack and kickstand mounts make it easy to accessorize and haul a load. Why you'll love it - It's a real mountain bike that's also perfectly suited to daily commutes, rides around campus, or just getting from A to B on any surface - Smaller frame sizes (XXS, XS, and S) have short-reach brake levers that make it easier and more comfortable for riders with smaller hands to brake confidently - Marlin models in XXS through S frame sizes have a curved top tube and a lower standover height that makes it easier for smaller riders to mount and dismount - Rack and kickstand mounts make it easy to accessorize, so your mountain bike can double as a rugged commuter - Like every model in the Marlin family, it's backed by Trek's lifetime warranty Wheel size: - Size XX-Small: 26-inch - Sizes X-Small – Small: 27.5-inch - Sizes Medium – XX-Large: 29-inch

Will my bike have a curved top tube?

Smaller frames (XXS-S) have a top tube that dips down as it approaches the seat tube. This design makes for a lower standover height, which is good for shorter riders because it allows them to straddle their bike more easily. The larger frames (M and up) have a straight top tube because taller riders with longer legs typically don’t have the same issues with standover height.

Electric Bikes

Amplify your ride.

Whether you’re commuting to work downtown or taking a leisurely ride at the park, electric bikes can provide an extra boost to your pedaling efforts. After all, riding an electric bike is still you, just faster!  

E-Bike Basics 

An electric bike combines new electric brush motor technology and classic bicycle components. A standard bicycle drivetrain combined with a lithium-ion battery connected to a sleek display and a powerful brush motor, creates a ride like no other. An electric bike is still powered by the rider with a little bit of help from the motor.  You still shift, stop, and pedal like any other bicycle while covering more ground with the same amount of effort.

Electric Bike FAQs

Here are some of the most common questions riders ask us when we are discussing electric bikes. Have a question regarding E-Bikes? Give us a call anytime! We love talking all things bicycle. 

"How far can an e-bike travel on a single charge?"

The range of an electric bike is variant on the rider's weight, riding and shifting style, and some other external variables such as battery size. Generally, a class one electric bike will have a range of approximately 40-100 miles on a single charge.

"How long does an e-bike take to charge? Does it charge while you're pedaling?"

Generally, batteries will take between 4-6 hours to charge based on their capacity and battery level at the time of charge. A rider should treat charging their E-bike as they would their mobile phone; simply plug the charger into the bike, then plug the charger into the wall, and you'll be ready to ride again in no time!  

Most electric bikes on the market today do not feature regenerative pedaling to charge the battery while you ride.Generally, e-bikes require having their battery charged via an outlet and a charger. 

"Isn't that cheating? I want to get exercise, not have the bike do the work for me."

Specialized Bicycle Company said it best, "It's you, only faster". Riding an electric bike is far from cheating, it is simply broadening your horizons. There is nothing wrong with a little bit of help when you need it, or making sure you have enough energy to get home after a long group ride. The rider is still working while riding an electric bike. In fact, over 66% of the electric bikes on the market  today require rider pedaling input in order to receive any assistance. An electric bike does not do the work for any rider, it simply supplements their efforts.

"How fast can an e-bike go? Does it have a throttle?"

The top speed of any electric bicycle is determined by the class specification of the bike. E-bikes specified in Class 1 or 2 both have a maximum assistance speed of ~20mph where a Class 3 e-bike has a maximum assistance speed of ~28mph.

"What if I run out of battery? What if I exceed the speed limit on my e-bike?"

An e-bike does not need to be turned on or have the battery installed on it to still be a functional bicycle. If a rider were to get overzealous and ride beyond the range of the battery, all hope is not lost. If the battery runs dead or is disconnected, the e-bike loses its ability to assist the rider but it still functions with no added resistance from the motor. 

Conversely, if the battery and motor are powered on and the maximum assistance speed is exceeded the bike will no longer help the rider accelerate but will not inhibit them from doing so. In simpler terms, a Class one electric bike will assist a rider to ~20mph, after this point, all speed and acceleration comes from the riders legs. Additionally, the motor provides no resistance once the maximum assistance speed is reached, giving the rider full control over their speed. 

Reinventing the Ride 

Electric bikes aren’t reinventing the wheel, but they are reinventing the ride.  Like a motor scooter or motorcycle, an electric bike gets the rider out on the road or trail for years of enjoyment.  Unlike similar fuel powered vehicles, there are no license or road restrictions, nor harmful pollutants.  Electric bikes sustain the fun of riding a traditional bicycle while adding a little boost.  Electric bikes offer the opportunity for the rider to tackle their local group ride, commute to work without breaking a sweat, and cover more ground on a long ride without expending more energy.  Electric bikes are breathing new life into the phrase, “Work smarter, not harder.”

VinFast just added 12 new car dealers in the US

VinFast Auto (Nasdaq: VFS) today announced that it’s officially signed agreements with 12 new car dealers in the US. 

The dozen new car dealers working with VinFast will begin to operate this month. This will bring the total number of US VinFast dealerships to 18, spanning seven states: North Carolina, New York, Texas, Florida, Kansas, Connecticut, and Kentucky.

There are already 15 VinFast stores and service centers in California, but in Q4 2023, VinFast announced it would be pivoting from its direct-to-consumer distribution model to a “capital-light hybrid model” by building dealership networks in the US and globally. The Vietnamese automaker is optimistic that sales through dealers will boost sales numbers in the second half of 2024.

David Duncan, vice president of sales and marketing at VinFast US, said, “Leveraging the network of stores, market experience, and capabilities of leading US dealers, VinFast will quickly deliver high-quality, competitively priced electric vehicles to consumers, along with outstanding after-sales policies. This establishes a solid foundation for VinFast’s strong growth in the US market.”

VinFast’s after-sales policy includes a 10-year/125,000-mile warranty for the car and a 10-year unlimited mileage warranty for the battery under standard use. VinFast’s parts distribution center will support the US dealers it’s working with.

The new dealerships will sell the VF 8 model, followed by the VF 9 and VF 7, once they’re launched in the US.

Here’s the complete list of 18 dealers, and the new dealers are in bold:

• Leith VinFast, Raleigh, NC
• Smith Haven VinFast, St. James, NY
• Principle VinFast, Grapevine, TX
• Hiley VinFast of Fort Worth, TX
• VinFast Wichita, KS
• Holman VinFast, Ft. Lauderdale, FL
• Premier VinFast, Branford, CT
• H Greg VinFast, West Palm Beach, FL
• Triad VinFast, Greensboro, NC
