Marin Rift Zone Jr
$2,200.00
Kids' Full-Suspension Trail Bike · 24" (upgradeable to 26")
Marin's most dialed kids' bike yet — a genuine mini-trail bike, not a toy. Same 130mm rear travel and Series 3 aluminum frame as the "grown-up" Rift Zone, with MultiTrac suspension, Boost 148x12mm thru-axle, UDH compatibility, ISCG05 tabs, and modern adult trail geometry (65.5° head angle, 76° seat angle, 425mm chainstays). Built with X-Fusion Velvet RLC air fork (fully tunable for light riders), X-Fusion O2 Pro R shock, Tektro 1x11 drivetrain, hydraulic disc brakes, and a 100mm dropper. Best part: swap to 26" wheels and longer cranks when your kid grows — the bike grows with them for multiple buying cycles.
