The new Rift Zone EL charts a different path within the Rift Zone E family. These models take the proven geometry, travel and trail prowess of the proven Rift Zone E in a nimble and lighter package.
Marin’s all-new Rift Zone EL (“Electric Light”) trail eMTBs take everything you love about the Rift Zone formula and repurposes it into bikes that share the capability as the full-powered versions, but in lighter-weight packages.
Made possible in part by Bosch’s new lightweight Performance Line SX drive unit and CompactTube internal battery, the Rift Zone EL models deliver a decidedly playful ride, with a power delivery so natural you might forget it’s an ebike. All of the benefits without the bulk, the Rift Zone EL is the perfect platform for those who don’t require the full range and power output of more traditional eMTBs.
All three models are well-equipped with performance-focused components from top-tier supplier partners such as Fox, SRAM, Shimano, TRP and more. Throw a leg over one and discover just how agile and fun an eMTB can be.
The Rift Zone EL1 is smartly spec'd with air-sprung Marzozzchi Bomber suspension, Shimano's stout and smooth-shifting CUES 10-speed drivetrain and powerful TRP Slate EVO 4-piston disc brakes.
