    2023 Rift Zone 26 Color

    RIFT ZONE 26″

    $1,799.00

    REAL SINGLETRACK RIDING

    KEEPING UP WITH THE PARENTS

    FUN!

    Because young rippers need that Rifty Love too! Our take on the ultimate do-it-all trail bike, bringing big-bike performance for younger riders.

    The Marin Rift Zone 26 is made to party, just like the full-sized Rifty. It has 26″ wheels that are a little smaller than our full-sized bikes, making it the perfect gateway ride for tweeny riders. And just like the ‘grown up’ Rift Zone, it has 130mm rear travel, a lightweight aluminum frame and our super-plush MultiTrac suspension platform for endless good times on the trails.

    Got another little shredder on the way? The Rift Zone 26 shares the same frame, fork and shock as the Rift Zone 24. Simply swap the wheels and cranks to downsize it to 24″ as the perfect hand-me-down.

    TRAIL GEOMETRY

    We put as much attention when designing the Rift Zone 26/Jr as we do the adult bikes, so young riders get to experience modern long/low/slack geometry, enhancing comfort and control when the trail gets steep and/or rough.

    SUSPENSION SETUP

    REAR SHOCK SETUP

    Recommended Sag = 30%/15mm

    Step 1: Set correct pressure in rear shock.

    Step 2: Sit on the bike and cycle the suspension (*with correct riding gear).

    Step 3: Reset O-ring and sit on the bike, DO NOT BOUNCE, carefully step off.

    Step 4: Measure sag (from o-ring to seal of shock), If it does not match the bike’s recommended sag in millimeters repeat process.

    Step 5: Adjust rebound setting to ensure proper control.

    FORK SETUP

    Marin recommends that all bikes front and rear suspension feel balanced

    Step 1: After rear sag is set follow the recommended pressure from the fork manufacturer.

    Step 2: Bounce evenly up and down on the bike, cycling the suspension up and down to make sure both front and rear suspension feel balanced, if the front does not match the rear add or release pressure.

    Step 3: Once the bike feels balanced adjust the rebound damping to ensure proper control.
