Hi everyone,
Looking to get my first bike and wondered what bikes I should be considering. I will be using it for biking around town and basic/light trails through the woods. So no crazy mountain biking. Just a nice smooth ride.
I'm considering the:
- Trek Marlin 7 Gen 2 = $550 – Link
- Rockhopper Comp 29 = $599 – Link
- Cannondale Trail 8 (29") = $535 – Link
- Scott Aspect 970 = $599 – Link
The Trek Marlin has the Deore which seems like a better tech from the little research I've done? But I don't have a clue what I'm looking at tbh.
I was looking at second-hand bikes but couldn't find much. But if there are bikes I should be looking out for on the 2nd hand market, please let me know.
Thanks so much in advance

The Trek Marlin is an easy win among the 4 listed here. Definitely the best components, most definitely the choice between them. For your use case it should be perfect.
