Newbie Question Trek Marlin 5, Giant ATX 2 or Specialized Pitch 27.5?

Hello All,

I wanted some advice as I haven't been out on a Mt. Bike in about 8 years. I used to have a Rocky Mt. full suspension bike, but sold it a few years ago when I got married. Now, I'm looking to get back into riding trails to help me get back into shape and lose some weight.

I have found the following new bikes that fit my budget:

Trek Marlin 5 $490

Giant ATX2 $460

Specialized Pitch 27.5 $475


I also see that a local bike shop has a used 2017 Marin Bolinas Ridge 2 M27.5 for $499.

Do you all have any suggestions on which I should get? I currently am looking to ride on non-technical trails that are of the easy to medium difficulty. I can't do any large uphills at this time.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Mike R.
