RS 181.2
This is an extremely limited custom build, assembled by the SpokeX team exactly the way we'd ride it -- a zero-compromise build.
These limited edition small batch frames has been refined to shed weight and bulk around the bottom bracket without giving up its CAT 5 DH strength rating.
The Crestline RS 181.2 delivers all the watts, zero bulk, a more refined shape, and our continued no-compromises approach to performance.
*This build rolls on our custom SpokeX x Industry Nine System carbon SX310 wheelset, built in house. Spokes and hubs come in a range of colors, so reach out before you order and we'll set your wheels up the way you want them.
*Every one of these is built to order in our Temecula shop. If you want to swap the bars, stem, spokes, hubs, or anything else on this spec, reach out before you order. Most changes we can do, and we'll tell you straight if we can't.

Equipping you with everything you need -- and more -- to keep your bike perfectly dialed.
Crestline worked with Cascade Components on the kinematics of this bike, giving you the ability to adjust rear travel from 161mm all the way up to 181mm. The two main settings on the stock frameset: 205x65mm flip chip in ST (short travel) = 161mm; 205x65mm flip chip in LT (long travel) = 181mm. A 205x62.5mm flip chip in LT yields 169mm rear travel, which pairs with a 170mm fork.
A straight head tube preserves cockpit optionality. A ZS56-ZS56 or ZS56-EC56 press-in headset lets you run a variety of aftermarket reach-adjust and angle-adjust headsets -- adjustments of +/-5mm with a single-crown fork from stock, or up to +/-10mm with a DH fork. You can also run aftermarket anglesets to adjust head tube angles.
Developed with a well-respected frame-protection supplier that produces protection for several top-tier brands, this new one-piece chainstay protector is quieter, tougher, and adheres more securely to the frame than our previous setup. The material and form were refined for better coverage and impact resistance -- reducing noise and protecting the frame through rough terrain.
A carried-over solid one-piece design that functions as a bash guard / skid plate as well as a cover, with a shape that increases ground clearance under the bottom bracket. Made from PA66 / Nylon 66 -- a recyclable synthetic polymer -- for high-level performance and durability with environmental factors in mind.
Each frame ships with the recommended dropout and wheel configuration based on size. All other dropout options are available aftermarket, giving you full control to adapt over time.
