Fork
The Alpine Trail E2 comes factory-installed with the Fox Performance Elite Float 38 fork. This has a travel range of 160mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth ride. In short, make sure you choose one with a decent fork when you purchase your dream bike.
Rear Shock
The shock that’s installed on this e-bike is Fox Float DHX2, with a travel distance of 150mm. Rear shocks give you increased comfort, control, and traction, which is important when cornering or braking. This allows you to ride faster on bumpy roads. To sum up, always consider getting a bike that has a rear shock as well.
Wheels
When it comes to wheels, the Alpine Trail E2 e-bike is equipped with the 29″ aluminum model. These wheels are more forgiving when you go over roots, rocks, bumps, or other obstacles you encounter on your ride. However, if you’re not a tall person, you might find it difficult to adapt to this wheel size.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Marin Alpine Trail E2 is equipped with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, these are ideal for anyone.
Sizes
There are 4 sizes available for this model. Rider height can be anywhere between 160 cm – 193 cm (5.25 ft – 6.33 ft). In short, you can easily find one that suits you.
Dropper post
The Marin model is also equipped with a dropper post. A dropper post is a must-have these days if you’re riding anything remotely technical. The main benefit of a dropper post is increased safety while riding. As mentioned above, the lever system allows you to quickly move the saddle out of the way when approaching descents or trail obstacles.
