Whether you're up for all-day epic rides, local shred laps, or big mountain adventures, this bike is your perfect companion. It's the entry point to the Rifty family, offering high - performance riding without breaking the bank. Built around a brand - new Series 3 aluminum frame with detailed forgings, precisely shaped tubes, and full internal cable routing, it provides a top - notch platform for upgrades. Marin's well - known MultiTrac suspension system offers a balanced ride. It can soak up big impacts while ensuring an efficient pedaling experience. The rocker link gives the rear shock a progressive leverage ratio, enhancing small - bump sensitivity and making large drops feel like a breeze. The bike is equipped with a reliable X - Fusion fork and shock combo, grippy Vee Crown Gem tires, a quality Shimano setup, and carefully chosen Marin components.

Using the Marin Rift Zone 1 is a breeze. Before you start your ride, make sure the tires are properly inflated and all the bolts are tightened. When riding, the MultiTrac suspension system will handle most bumps and shocks, so you can focus on the trail. Shift gears smoothly using the Shimano components according to the terrain. For maintenance, after each ride, give your bike a quick clean to remove dirt and debris. Check the brakes regularly to ensure they're working well. Once a month, lubricate the chain to keep it running smoothly. If you're planning to store the bike for a long time, keep it in a dry place and cover it to protect it from dust and moisture.
