Technologies
- Series 3 Aluminum Frame + 27.5″ Wheels: The Rift Zone 27.5 has a Series 3 6061 butted and hydroformed aluminum frame with 120mm travel MultiTrac suspension technology and playful 27.5″ wheels. 27.5″ wheels fit most riders better and create a lightweight and responsive bike, the most playful trail bike in the line.
- Multitrac Suspension Technology: MultiTrac is an acclaimed suspension system, fine-tuned to have a balanced ride capable of absorbing big hits with an efficient pedaling platform. The rocker link provides a progressive leverage ratio for the rear shock for small bump sensitivity and the feeling of a long travel system on large drops and rocks.
- Internal Routing: Rift Zone 27.5 models are compatible with internally routed dropper posts, with internal rear derailleur routing for a clean look and snag free ride.
- Closed 9-12 Axle: The Rift Zone 27.5 1 is spec’d with a 141 x 9mm axle that is upgradable to a Boost 148 x 12mm standard, allowing for more options if you decide to take your bike to the next level.
