Two new hardtail eMTBs have emerged in recent months that look very similar on paper, but couldn’t have more different personalities. The Aventon Ramblas represents the nicest ride ever produced by a dominant e-bike brand. The Trek Marlin+ is one of the most affordable e-bikes from a cycling giant with decades of experience making premium rides.
So…. which is the better buy?
We’ve ran each bike through extensive testing. From speed tests to brake tests to range tests and more. See how these different rides stack up so you can determine which one is better for you!

I love the content, but man not doing the true head to head with the Marlin+ 6 this just seems off. With that said, I’m happy to see content with the LBS brands. More Giant, Trek, Specialized etc. content please! Don’t necessarily want to see less DTC, just would be great to see a better mix.

Hey guys. I’m sure Griffin knows it but maybe some of the viewers don’t but Trek bike shops ( at least in my area) will work on whatever sort of bike you bring them so don’t let not having an Aventon shop in your area be a deterrent to buying a less expensive bike that looks like a great alternative to the Marlin

It's like y'all are reading my mind 😮 these are the exact emtb i am considering, leaning towards Ramblas because going on long, hilly day trips around the PNW is my main interest. Excited to watch!

I opted for the ramblas over the marlin. I got it on sale so the difference allowed me to upgrade dropper, grips, and pedals before reaching the price of the marlin. I prefer single tracks and am not a jumper so it has been great.

This video continues a theme of reviewers scrambling to find justification for why Bosch-powered Ebikes cost so much more. They just do.

Yeah it sucks to see but these bike companies are getting absolutely outclassed. And in some ways for “humans” as a whole it’s a good thing if fast innovation gets more people on an e bike. But it sucks that recommending any sort of brand name bike is just… bad.

Ramblas. Is what I chose. Been a great bike. My only flaw is the noise. It's a tad annoying but I can deal with it. It's powerful and battery is great. Gonna upgrade forks and tires prolly next summer.

Underneath the Ramblas fork, you can adjust it

I purchased the Trek Marlin +6 mostly because I wanted something that was a bit more natural feeling. The ramblas is a great choice, but the Trek won out for a lot of reasons.

I like power, so I would choose the Aventon. But I am too old to ride trail without full suspension, so neither of these hardtails really works for me.

Great comparison. There are no reviews of the Rocky Mountain Fusion power play line. I'm considering the Fusion 30 or the Ramblas. I'd love to know if any of you have an opinion about that? My local bike shop is selling the Ramblas for $2,900 and closing out the 2023 Fusion 30 for $2500. Thanks Rich

If you could invest the cost difference in a fork upgrade for the Ramblas, would that make it a clear winner?

I would love a Trek at the Adventon price !

Aventon appears to have the better welders on staff. Very nice, finished look vs. the Trek.

Don't mean to bash but for around 2100 you can Get a rocky mountain emtb hardtail. It comes with a suntour xcr air shock but you can easily upgrade to something nicer like a revelation which can be found cheap on the used market as a take off since people often times upgrade to pikes or lyriks

Where did you find that price? Everything on their website start around $3k.

@ElectricBikeReport jensen. They got the fusion power 10 for like 2.1 grand right now in medium and large. It is the 2023 model so that may be why though. But specs on the 2024 look to be similar to the 2023 with the xcr fork

I bought the Ramblas because the bang for the buck is unmatched

It's one heck of a compelling argument

@vegasvampire66648 11 күн бұрын

I think the Marlin +6 or the Powerfly 4 would have been a better comparison. However, I would go with Trek or Giant for my e-mtb needs. No hate to DTC brands, but support your local bike ship!

My local bike shop carrys Aventon. There are 1,800 Aventon dealers currently.
