Marin Rift Zone 26 - Teal-Black - 2023

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.

TECHNOLOGY

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.

AIR SUSPENSION
Easily adjustable air suspension is tunable for a growing kid.

INTERNAL CABLE & HOSE ROUTING
The Rift Zone 26 and Rift Zone Jr are compatible with internally routed dropper posts, with internal rear derailleur routing for a clean look and snag free ride. Unused ports come pre-plugged, to keep the frame insides clean.

DISC BRAKES
Hydraulic disc brakes provide smooth, controlled stopping in all conditions with minimal maintenance.
