Depends on your intended use. Assuming it's boat anchor, get
the heavier one.

Arrange them alphabetically and then take the first one
in the list.

Based on specs alone: Both are aluminum frames, so they're
the same. One might fit better though. FORKS: Marin's
slightly better. Wheels: DT spokes on the Marin, which
suggests it might be a tad better. DRIVETRAIN: Marin has a
couple more Alivio parts, givng the nod to the Trek. The
Trek also comes w/ clipless. BRAKES: disc is standard with
Marin, extra on Trek. Unless you're really going all out,
disc is overkill. I've never had them.

SUMMATION: I just wasted 7 minutes.
