I’ve been looking at this bike. Going full budget enduro. Like the way those PNW orange grips and level look. How well do the match the orange in the Marin frame?
Just found your channel. Great videos! I'm from Ringwood area so ride mostly there but want to start riding Allamuchy and Stephens. Was wondering if you have links to some of your routes ?
Thanks! You can check out my ride logs on trailforks here: www.trailforks.com/profile/jazztbone2b/ridelog/?sort=l.timestamp&activitytype=1&year=0&bikeid=0 Allamuchy and Stephens are incredible. You will not be disappointed!
Nice video....I have a Rift Zone and love it....thinking of stepping up to the Alpine next summer.....do you find you have to fight the bars to stay centered on uphills with the slack angle? Thanks for sharing video.
To be honest, the Alpine Trail climbs incredibly well! It has a steep seat tube angle which does a great job of keeping you centered over the bike. It's the best climbing bike I've ridden!
