The Marin Rift Zone 1 29 is designed for riders who want a lively, confidence-inspiring full-suspension trail bike without breaking the bank. Built around a Series 3 aluminium frame, the Rift Zone 1 combines strength, efficiency, and agility, making it ideal for everything from flowy singletrack to technical descents.
At the heart of the bike is Marin’s MultiTrac suspension system, delivering 130mm of plush rear travel via the X-Fusion O2 Pro R rear shock. The X-Fusion Slide Boost RC fork provides 140mm of front suspension, with compression and rebound adjustability, ensuring the bike remains responsive and composed over rough terrain.
A Shimano Deore 11-speed drivetrain ensures smooth and reliable shifting, with an 11-51T cassette offering a wide range for climbing and descending. The Marin Forged Alloy crankset with a 32T narrow-wide chainring provides secure chain retention on aggressive trails.
Braking power comes from Tektro HD-M280 hydraulic disc brakes, with 180mm rotors ensuring consistent stopping performance on technical descents. The Rift Zone 1 rolls on Marin aluminium double-wall rims, fitted with tubeless-ready Vee Tire Snap WCE 2.35” tyres. These offer exceptional grip, durability, and control, making them ideal for a mix of terrain.
A TranzX dropper post allows for quick saddle height adjustments, with 150mm of travel on the Small size and 170mm on M-XL sizes. The Marin Mini-Riser handlebars and short stem provide a comfortable, trail-ready cockpit, keeping the bike agile and responsive.
