  • Marin Rift Zone 1 27.5 2026
  • Marin Rift Zone 1 27.5 2026

The Rift Zone 1 27.5 is a great-value trail bike that pairs agile 27.5" wheels with 140mm of travel up front and 130mm at the rear. Its lightweight aluminium frame and Marin's plush MultiTrac suspension make it an excellent, versatile choice for UK trail riding.

MultiTrac is tuned for a balanced ride, soaking up big hits while still giving an efficient pedalling platform. The rocker link gives the shock a progressive leverage ratio, so it's sensitive over small bumps yet feels like a longer-travel bike on big drops and rocks.

The Series 3 aluminium frame has a threaded bottom bracket with ISCG05 tabs and 141mm Boost spacing that can be upgraded to 148x12mm. The build includes X-Fusion suspension, Shimano CUES 11-speed with a wide 11-50T cassette, Tektro hydraulic disc brakes with 180mm rotors, and an X-Fusion Manic dropper post as standard.

The Rift Zone 1 comes with 27.5" wheels in sizes XS, S and M, and with 29" wheels in sizes M, L and XL. You can find the 29" version here.

    Great introductory full suss

    I recently got my hands on the 2025 Marin Rift Zone 1, a full-suspension trail bike that’s become my go-to for shredding local trails. This bike is an absolute blast and an incredible value for anyone looking to get into the world of full-suspension MTBs without spending a fortune.

    Also arrived ahead of schedule from bikrtart, who offered great comms all the way through.
