Crestline Releases Special RS180 Team Edition eMTB - Limited to 75 PCS 2

This limited Crestline RS180 Team Edition is the latest version of our Bosch CX Race powered ebike and will be shipping in spring 2024. We will be offering customers this RS Factory Team build which will ship setup with a Cascade Tuned link bumping rear travel to 180mm. We've paired that with a Fox Factory 38 180mm fork. While updating the rear linkage to incorporate additional travel, we were very careful to ensure that the bike retains all of its original characteristics, which everyone who has ridden one has fallen in love with.

 

 

This edition is limited to 75pcs and they will all be individually numbered 1/75 to 75/75. The bikes all ship with the BOSCH CX-R (RACE) motors and a 750wh battery plus all the latest bluetooth components available from Bosch. The RS180 is painted in Chalk & Raw Carbon with Yellow accents and has a gloss finish.

*Please note, this bike can still be configured in any of the originally released travel settings with a few changes we’d be happy to explain and help to facilitate. This means you still have options ranging from 150mm rear travel all the way up to 180mm. More information on all these options can be requested by sending an email to info@crestlinebikes.com or scheduling a call to discuss the best setup for you.

Pre-order available now from: Crestline Bike Co., Worldwide Cyclery, Fanatik Bike Co. or in person at your Local Bike Shop. Bikes are scheduled to ship in April 2024.

Adjustable Travel: With our adjustable travel settings, you don't have to worry about getting the wrong bike. Anyone who chooses either model of the bike will be able to set it up with either longer or shorter travel settings, and we even offer a few options in between the two extremes. This means that if you move to a new location where your trails are more challenging and you want more travel, you can have it! Or vice versa.

Sizing: RS180's will be available in the following sizes: RH-2, RH-3, RH-4 (*RH = Rider Height)

• RH-2 will always ship MX (29 front 27.5 rear)
• RH-3 will ship MX or 29/29 (you have both options in this size)
• RH-4 will always ship as 29/29 for taller riders!

We feel that this format keeps the bikes appropriately balanced by utilizing our ability to have either a 27.5" RT or 29" RT and thus keeping stay lengths nicely in check for all shapes and sizes!

Geometry: The Geometry on the RS180 build has been optimized for long travel and can be found on our website here. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions related to geometry for other settings other than whats listed. We can always point you to an older configuration that best informs you of what all the numbers end up at on your proposed setup.

Build Kit: Detailed information about the full build kit can be found on our website here but we've added pictures of the parts list below to give you a quick idea. One item we are particularly excited to have added is wireless dropper posts on all builds, with the largest size getting a healthy 200mm of drop.

Timeline and Availability: The Special Edition RS180 Factory Team bikes will be shipping to customers in Spring of 2024. (current ETA to ship to customers is April 2024)
