2024 Marin Alpine Trail Carbon 2 - Gloss Black/Silver
MarinBIG ALL-MOUNTAIN DAYS WHERE TRAVEL AND GEOMETRY MATTER MOST
BUILT FOR ABUSE AND ROWDY RIDING
ENDURO-STYLE RIDING AND RACING
BIG BIKE, BIG WHEELS, BIG FUN
The Alpine Trail is a 29" wheeled full suspension bike built for the all day enduro rider that earns their downhill fun.
MULTITRAC 2 LT
MultiTrac 2 LT debuts on the aluminum-framed Alpine Trail alloy models. MultiTrac 2 LT shifts from seatstay pivots to chainstay pivots, ensuring that the suspension performance matches our design goals, which are not achievable using pivots located on the seatstay once travel exceeds 150mm. With MultiTrac 2 LT, the benefits of relocating the rear pivot points from the seatstay to the chainstay become apparent, as it reduces anti-rise, allowing for better chassis control while braking, more mid-stroke support, and better feel at bottom out.
Frame=Unidirectional Carbon Fiber Front Triangle, Series 4 Alloy Rear End, 29 Inch Wheels, 150mm Travel MultiTrac Suspension Platform, Internal Dropper Post and Rear Derailleur Housing, Chainstay Mounted Post Mount Disc Brake, 148x12mm Boost Thru- Axle, 73mm Threaded BB w/ ISCG05 Tabs
ADJUSTABLE GEOMETRY
With the integrated flip chips, adjustable headset and an aftermarket 29" rear wheel, Alpine Trail aluminum riders can select 12 unique configurations to run their bikes. These configurations allow the best fine-tuning of chassis to trail conditions available. Flip chips are easy to reconfigure trailside and easily done using a 6mm hex wrench, require no additional parts, and incorporate laser-etched graphics that indicate the position of the chips. The stock 27.5" rear wheel can be swapped out for a 29" rear wheel (not included) if desired, along with changing the position of the seatstay flip chips. Furthermore, the flip chips located at the seatstay pivots alter the bottom bracket height and chainstay length (low BB/long CS setting = 345/442mm, high BB/short CS setting = 352/435mm) so that riders can perfectly dial their bike in to match the terrain they are looking to conquer.
Bear Box Downtube Storage
The all-new Alpine Trail aluminum models now feature our Bear Box integrated downtube storage, complete with a custom nylon bag with a weather-sealed zipper. The hatch door is secure and double-sealed, with bottle bosses. Keep your riding essentials safe and protected from the elements during your big ride.
ADJUSTABLE HEADTUBE ANGLE
Using our proprietary headset cups and inserts, the headtube angle on Alpine Trail aluminum models can be adjusted to +0.75° or -0.75° from the standard 63° position, giving the rider three options.
PROTECTION
Chainstay and seatstays are protected with durable rubber guards that minimize noise and protect paint finishes, and integrated downtube guards helps deflect errant rocks, logs, or anything else riders may encounter on the trail.
Additionally, all aluminum frame models include a gasket around the cable exit hole reduces noise and prevents the brake hose and derailleur cable from marring the frame, and a mudflap positioned over the lower suspension pivot keeps spray and muck off the bearings. Cable ports are of an all-new design and keep the frame innards sealed. These ports use rubber membranes punctured during initial assembly and seal around the housing or hose once inserted. They will be available as a service part for when riders make changes to their components.
29" F&R WHEELS
The Alpine Trail Carbon was built upon a 2 x 29" wheel setup, for the utmost in climbing efficiency and ability to roll over whatever lays before you on the trail.
UNIDIRECTIONAL CARBON FIBER FRAME
Alpine Trail Carbon 1 and 2 models feature high modulus carbon fiber and monocoque construction to deliver the strongest and stiffest Alpine Trail to date.
ONE PIECE ROCKER LINK
The Alpine Trail Carbon utilizes a stout one piece rocker link for maximum frame rigidity and suspension performance, while also allowing for bridgeless seatstays for enhanced clearance.
DOWNTUBE PROTECTION
Alpine Trail Carbon models have an integrated and replaceable downtube protector to fend off inevitable log/rock/whatever strikes that may occur when out on a rowdy ride.
MODERN GEOMETRY
Alpine Trail Carbon models are designed with 63.5° headtube and 78° seattube angles that make the bike well-suited to both the descents as well as the climbs.
CHAINSTAY PROTECTION
The chainstays on Alpine Trail Carbon models feature an aggressive chainstay protector that not only protect your frame from chain slap, but also quiet the ride.
