The Marlin+ aims to impress with the same versatility of its non-electric siblings, such as a high-performance hardtail frame with a 120-millimetre suspension fork that smooths out rocks and roots, as well as thru-axles at the front and rear for precise handling. The 2.6-inch wide tires are designed to provide plenty of grip, while thanks to Smart Wheel Sizing, every frame size of the Marlin+ is paired with the optimum wheel size. This means that the frames from size M upwards are equipped with fast-rolling 29˝ wheels and the size S and XS models arrive in stores on size-specific, maneuverable 27.5˝ wheels.

The heart of the Marlin+ is Bosch's new Active Line Plus mid-motor. The Active Line Plus develops 50 Nm of torque and provides quiet and smooth drive assistance. The motor receives the necessary energy from a 400 watt-hour Bosch CompactTube battery that is fully integrated into the frame. In conjunction with the 250 watt-hour Range Extender from Bosch Ost, the riding time can be extended with electric assistance.
