Rift Zone is built around the idea that trail riding should feel intuitive and fun. The Series 3 aluminium frame uses Marin’s MultiTrac suspension platform to deliver a supportive, active feel on the trail, helping the rear wheel track the ground for consistent grip and control.
With 130mm of rear travel paired to a 140mm fork, the Rift Zone 1 strikes a balance between efficiency on climbs and confidence on descents. The geometry keeps handling playful and predictable, especially with the 27.5in wheel setup, which suits riders who value agility and quick direction changes.
X-Fusion suspension front and rear provides reliable performance and simple adjustment, while the Manic dropper post lets you move freely on technical terrain. The Shimano 11-speed drivetrain offers a wide gear range for steep climbs, and hydraulic disc brakes deliver steady braking control when trails get steep or loose.
Grippy 2.35in tyres, wide bars and modern trail components round out a bike that’s ready for trail centres, natural singletrack and progressing your riding without overcomplicating things.
