The Rift Zone Carbon XR is the top-spec version of Marin's most speed-oriented MultiTrac bike, made for riders who want the speed and rollover of 29" wheels in a properly trail-capable package. A stiff carbon front triangle, a 140mm Fox 36 fork and a Fox Factory coil shock make it a fast, composed and seriously fun trail bike.
Long, low and slack trail geometry is more aggressive than an XC race bike, giving you more control at top speed and more fun while chasing seconds. The unidirectional carbon front triangle sits on a Series 4 alloy rear end with 125mm of MultiTrac travel, and the coil shock gives a supple, consistent feel on rough, rooty ground.
The rest of the build is just as capable: a Shimano XT rear derailleur with SLX shifter and cassette, powerful Shimano XT 4-piston brakes with a 203mm front rotor, a TranzX dropper post and grippy Maxxis Assegai tyres front and rear.
