MOUNTAIN BIKING WITH A BOOST
BEYOND CAPABLE, BOTH UP AND DOWN, IN
EVEN THE MOST CHALLENGING TERRAIN
MAXIMIZING FUN
SERIES 4 ALUMINUM FRAME
Alpine Trail E models are built upon our Series 4 aluminum frames, with detailed forgings, highly manipulated tubes, and full internal cable routing, giving the rider the highest-end alloy frame that Marin offers, compatible with modern coil or air shocks.
MULTITRACK SUSPENSION
The Alpine Trail E features the same great, proven MultiTrac suspension technology, but is optimized for the Shimano STEPS system. With this combination there is no need for a platform or lockout levers, just get on and blast up the hills.
MIXED WHEEL SIZES
29″ front and 27.5″+ rear wheel sizes are the ideal combination for the Alpine Trail E, with a larger front wheel easily rolling over most any trail obstacle and offering the best cornering traction, while the burly 27.5″ x 2.8″ rear setup adds playfulness and enhances acceleration and braking traction.
DROPPER POST OPTIMIZED
The modern-day trail rider needs their saddle out of the way at times, while low-slung frames require longer-length posts. On the Alpine Trail E, seat tube lengths have been minimized, along with minimum insertion depths, so that riders of all sizes can get the proper extension needed.

DESIGNED RIGHT
We didn’t just add a battery, motor, controller to the Alpine Trail and call it a day. The Alpine Trail E was designed as a whole system, with everything from the frame to drivetrain to the individual components being individually selected to give the rider the best eMTB experience available.
SHIMANO STEPS
Shimano’s STEPS system is both powerful and lightweight, with the mid-drive motor down low to help ensure that the Alpine Trail E performs like the analog version, but with a 250W boost. Three levels of power give riders options to balance electric power, speed, and range. Electric-assist up 25km/h.
SYSTEM INTEGRATION
The electric features are built-in, with an integrated and removable downtube battery, top tube power button, and side charging port encased in the forged motor cradle.
FULL SHIMANO SUPPORT
The full Shimano STEPS system comes with the peace of mind that only a technology leader like Shimano can provide. With years of expertise, our customers can rest assured that they have some of the best global support available to them.
The Alpine Trail E will take you further, faster, allowing you to tackle the most aggressive trails either up or down.
