Borrowing the geometry and suspension from the Alpine Trail bicycle, the e-bike versions continue the theme of having a ridiculously good, well considered spec sheet for the money.
Highlights of the range-topping E2 include a Fox Performance Elite suspension, with a 38 fork and DHX2 coil shock. Proper Shimano SLX brakes and drivetrain, X-Fusion Manic post (in different lengths depending on frame size) and a Deity cockpit all stand out as smart choices by the product managers at Marin.
Mullet wheels make the most of the capabilities of the 250w Shimano Steps EP8 motor, with the rear running a 2.8" tyre for a bit of extra traction.
There are normal bikes on the market that don't have this good a spec for this sort of price!
