This bike is a heavily upgraded 2016 Trek Marlin 5. Not much of the bike is stock anymore. The only stock parts are the front derailleur, front rim, handlebars, seat post and stem. Everything else has been upgraded. Some unique features that could help identify the bike are the Zip Ties that are grouping and securing the cables at the front of the bike to make things neater. There's also 3M Scotchgard Protective Film applied to various areas of the frame where the cables make contact, to prevent them from wearing into the frame. On the handlebars you'll find a remote lockout for my fork, a mount for my Garmin Dakota 20 GPS, and a Bontrager GOTime Cycle Computer. There's also a Topeak Road Morph pump fastened to the frame with Zip Ties.
