Marin Alpine Trail E1

The Alpine Trail E1 uses a 'mullet' configuration, pairing a 29-inch front wheel with a 27.5-inch rear wheel. This setup gives you the rollover capability and stability of a larger front wheel while keeping the rear end nimble and quick to maneuver through tight, technical trail sections.

This bike is built for aggressive trail riding and enduro-style terrain. With 170mm of front travel and a coil-sprung rear shock, it excels on steep, rough descents and technical features where you need maximum traction and consistent suspension performance.

While range varies significantly based on rider weight, assist mode, elevation gain, and terrain, the 750Wh battery is designed for long-distance mountain adventures. Most riders can expect to complete substantial rides without range anxiety, though using the highest assist mode on steep climbs will naturally deplete the battery faster.

Yes, the frame features adjustable geometry that allows you to tweak the head tube angle, bottom bracket height, and chainstay length. This flexibility lets you tune the bike's handling to be either more stable at high speeds or more responsive in tight corners.

The Marzocchi CR coil shock provides a very linear, supple feel that is excellent for tracking over small bumps and maintaining traction on technical climbs. While it is slightly heavier than an air shock and less adjustable on the fly, many aggressive riders prefer the consistent, 'planted' feel it offers on long, rough descents.

The Bosch Performance CX motor delivers 85Nm of torque, which is plenty of power for tackling steep, technical climbs. It provides a natural, intuitive power delivery that helps you maintain momentum even when the trail gets vertical.
