Marin Rift Zone 8 Carbon 29er Mountain Bike 2017. Take your next ride to 11 with the Marin Rift Zone 8 Carbon 29er mountain bike. The Rift Zone 8 Carbon is a pro level, trail ready full suspension 29er that delivers up serious performance with 110mm of IsoTrac travel and a custom tuned RockShox Monarch RL rear shock that give it the chops to go wherever you point it. Up front a RockShox Pike RC fork with 120mm of suspension travel delivers up plenty of squish to take the sting out of even the roughest trails, helping you stay in control, comfortable, and confident that you and the Rift Zone can handle anything. The Enhanced carbon monocoque frame is not only lightweight, but utilizes flexing stays which eliminate the need for a rear pivot, making for a lighter bike with less mechanical complexity and enhanced ride characteristics. Gear changing is handled by an excellent Shimano Deore XT 1x11 groupset, the industry leader when it comes to flawless shifting. XT M8000 not only simplifies the drivetrain by ditching the front derailleur, but it also drops weight and improves performance too. The massive 11 42 cassette gives you plenty of range, while the Shadow Plus clutch rear derailleur keeps the chain tensioned across the drivetrain. The chainring tooth profile ensures that the chain won't unship, even on the toughest terrain. Stopping comes courtesy of Shimano XT hydraulic disc brakes, that slow your roll in any terrain or trail conditions. Stan's NoTubes Flow MK3 wheels wrapped up in Schwalbe Nobby Nic and Racing Ralph 2.25 tires keep you rolling and hooked into the trail. Finishing off the build is an alloy cockpit from Marin, with a KS LEV Integra dropper post with remote.
