2025 Marin Rift Zone EL XR

Archived: Frame: All New Series 4 Alloy Lightweight E, 140mm MultiTrac Suspension, Integrated Battery/Charging Port, 148mm Rear Thru-Axle · Fork: Fox 36 Performance Elite, 150mm Travel, 29", 110x15 Kabolt, 44mm Offset

• Look for dents or shape changes and inspect the edges of welds around the head tube, bottom bracket, seat cluster and suspension mounts for hairline cracks.

Archived: Fork: Fox 36 Performance Elite, 150mm Travel, 29", 110x15 Kabolt, 44mm Offset · Rear shock: Fox Float X, Performance Elite, EVOL Air Spring, Climb Switch, Rebound Adjustment, Custom Tune, 210x55mm, 25xM8 Upper & Lower Mount

• Inspect the fork stanchions for scratches or coating wear, look for oil or dirt rings at the seals, and cycle the fork through its travel while checking for binding or bushing play.
• Inspect the shock shaft and seals, cycle the rear suspension through its travel and check for oil, air loss, binding or unusual top-out and bottom-out noises.
• Hold the rear brake and load the suspension from several directions. Check pivots, bearings and mounting hardware for knock, looseness or side play.
• Ask for dated fork, shock and pivot-service records. A clean exterior does not establish the condition of internal seals, oil, bushings or bearings.

Archived: Shifters: SRAM AXS Pod Infinity Mount · Rear derailleur: SRAM GX AXS T-Type · Crankset: e*thirteen e*spec Plus, 160mm Length, 34T · Cassette: SRAM CS-XS-1275 T-Type, 10-52T · Chain: SRAM GX T-Type

• Confirm every shift battery charges and every control operates. Shift through the full cassette under light load while checking pairing, derailleur alignment and response at both ends of the range.
• Measure chain wear with a compatible gauge and inspect chainring, cassette or freewheel teeth. A new chain does not rule out wear in the remaining drivetrain.
• Turn the cranks slowly, feel for rough bearings and check for side-to-side play. Inspect crank arms, chainring bolts and pedal threads for looseness or damage.

Archived: Brakes: (F) Magura MT7 with HC3 Lever, 4 Piston Hydraulic Disc, E-Specific Pads, 203mm MDR Rotor / (R) Magura MT7 with HC3 Lever, 4 Piston Hydraulic Disc, E-Specific Pads, 203mm MDR Rotor; Levers: Magura MT7 with HC3 Lever

• Squeeze each lever firmly. It should feel consistent and return cleanly. Check levers, hoses and calipers for fluid, inspect pad thickness and contamination, and examine rotors for wear or bending.

Archived: Wheel size: 29" · Rims: Marin Aluminum Double Wall, 29" Diameter, 32mm Inner Rim Width, Welded Joint, Disc Specific, Tubeless Compatible · Hubs: (F) Formula DCL-3482, 4 Sealed Bearings, 148x12, XD Driver, 6-Bolt, 32H / (R) Formula DC-711, 110x15, 6-Bolt, 32H · Front tire: Maxxis Minion DHF, 29x2.5" MAXXGRIP, Tubeless ready, EXO+, · Rear tire: Maxxis Forekaster 29x2.4", Tubeless Ready MAXX TERRA EXO+

• Spin both wheels and watch for side-to-side and vertical movement. Check spoke tension, rim condition and hub play.
• Inspect both tire casings for cuts, cracking, plugs, bulges or exposed threads and confirm the installed sizes are safe for the rims and available frame and fork clearance.
• Confirm whether the bike is actually set up tubeless, whether both tires hold pressure, and when sealant and rim tape were last serviced.

Archived: Headset: FSA No 57, Sealed Cartridge Bearings, 1 1/8" x 1 1/2” · Handlebar: Marin Trail, 35mm Clamp, 7000 Alloy Bar, 800mm Length, 20mm Rise, 5 Degree Up, 8 Degree Back · Stem: Marin CNC, 35mm Length, 35mm Bar Bore · Seatpost: PNW Loam Post with Range Lever, Size S 150mm Travel, Size M-L 170mm Travel, Size XL 200mm Travel, 34.9mm · Saddle: Marin Speed Concept · Pedals: Marin MTB Plastic

• Apply the front brake and rock the bike to check for headset play or notchiness. Inspect the stem, handlebar and clamp zones, then confirm every fastener and control is secure.
• Check that the seatpost moves for adjustment and that the saddle, post and clamp hold securely without cracks, severe corrosion or damaged hardware.

Archived: Marin Rift Zone EL XR · electric-assist identification

• Inspect the battery case, mount, lock and electrical contacts for cracks, impact, corrosion, swelling, overheating marks or looseness. Confirm the battery charges normally.
• Confirm the correct charger, battery keys and removable system parts are included. Check charger cables and connectors for damage or improvised repairs.
• Power the system on from cold, check the display for warnings, and test every assist mode. Assistance should engage and stop predictably without intermittent cutouts or abnormal motor noise.
• Ask for available battery-health, cycle-count, diagnostic and firmware records. Confirm that replacement batteries and system support remain available before agreeing on value.
