Lightly used. Full warranty. A serious chunk off retail.
These are our ex-demo Rift Zone EL1s coming off the fleet — ridden, loved, and looked after by our own team. Every one has been fully inspected and serviced in our shop, and each still carries its full Marin warranty. If you've been waiting for the right moment to get on a lightweight eMTB, this is it.

The Lightweight eMTB Built for Real Trail Riding
The Rift Zone EL1 is one of the most capable lightweight eMTBs on the North Shore. The Bosch Performance Line SX is one of the lightest full-assist drive units on the market — natural, responsive power that doesn't telegraph "electric." Marzocchi Bomber suspension front and rear, TRP 4-piston hydraulic brakes, and Maxxis Minion / Forekaster rubber mean this bike is built for actual trail riding, not just fire roads.
More laps, less hike-a-bike: the 400Wh battery delivers 25–90km of range depending on terrain and assist level — enough for a full day on Fromme or Seymour.
Assistance that feels natural: lighter, quieter, and more responsive than traditional eMTB systems — the benefit without the bulk.
Condition
Lightly used demo fleet bike. Cosmetically excellent with normal light trail wear, mechanically dialed by our techs, and ready to ride. Covered by full manufacturer warranty.
