The brand - new Alpine Trail series is Marin's most daring and capable range of enduro bikes. These are built on the most advanced and adjustable frames yet. The Series 4 aluminum MultiTrac 2 LT frames come with a unique mixed - wheel setup of 29” front and 27.5” rear (you can even use 29” rear wheels if you want), 170mm of front travel and 160mm of rear travel, offering maximum adjustability. You can change the head tube angle and the bottom bracket/chainstay length. The 'Bear Box' downtube storage has a zippered nylon bag for your trail essentials, and a 34.9mm seatpost boosts strength and works with the latest dropper posts. Even though the Alpine Trail 1 is the entry - level model in the three - model lineup, Marin didn't cut corners on the spec. High - performance Fox suspension gives you full control, a Shimano Deore 12 - speed drivetrain efficiently transfers your power to the wheels, and TRP's Slate Evo 4 - piston brakes with 203mm rotors stop you powerfully and without fade.
Using your Marin Alpine Trail 1 enduro bike is a breeze. Just hop on, adjust the seat to your comfort, and start pedaling. The adjustable head tube angle and bottom bracket/chainstay length allow you to customize the bike's handling according to your riding style and the trail conditions. When riding, use the Shimano Deore 12 - speed drivetrain to shift gears smoothly, and rely on the TRP Slate Evo 4 - piston brakes to stop safely. For storage, open the 'Bear Box' downtube zippered nylon bag and put in your trail essentials like snacks, a small tool kit, or a tube. As for maintenance, regularly clean your bike after each ride to remove dirt and debris. Check the tire pressure before every ride, and make sure the brakes are working properly. Every few months, lubricate the chain to keep it running smoothly. Also, have a professional bike mechanic check the suspension and other components periodically to ensure your bike stays in top - notch condition.
