Would be interesting to see what you guys are going to order or transfer over to your new frames.

I unfortunately sold a lot of my stock amflow stuff so that’s a real bummer because I can’t transfer over those parts I want. But here’s my thinking early on which may change after reading what you guys get

Coming with Zeb and vivid coil

One up bars (did 50mm rise on amflow and love it, but this bike has higher stack so wondering if I should go 35 now)

One up v3 dropper (consider axs)

Hayes dominion a4 w/220 rotors (between these and mavens)

We are one convergence mx wheelset w/i9 hydra 2 hubs is on my amflow that I’d like to swap over, I may order a cheap set to sell with my amflow to keep these

Might switch to try out schwalbe radials from maxxis I always run. Maybe try Magic Mary front and rear

Axs with xo drivetrain. 155 hope or era cranks
 
Noice! Gotta say, I love the design except the BB area, I did some photo shopping to (i think) improve the looks a little. in a world of AI and all that I still used Microsoft paint so dont look too close. The shock wouldn't quite clear the battery in the down tube and the charging port would need relocating, but I think its a bit cleaner. Obviously lots of reasons it probably looks the way it does (different sizes, maybe can remove battery without removing motor?).
Anyway, if the designer needs a hand on the next frame iteration, dont use me.

I'm not building one but would re-use almost all my parts. A lot of overlap with you, you have great stuff on the list. My suspension would be Manitou Mezzer / Vorsprung Telum and one difference is in the hubs - I have both I9 and DT Swiss and would always opt for dt swiss. For an avinox probably even the hybrid hubs.

Big fan of Schwalbe Radials for the PNW- I run MM super soft trail front and albert soft gravity rear.

For handlebar the RF Era is also nice and has lifetime warranty, even for crashes.

Yeah I got the wheelset on Black Friday sale. I may just sell them with the amflow. I’m considering the reserve wheels with e13 sidekick. Gotta do more research on that hub but I saw a few good reviews on it.
 
Ordered the dark frame so would put a 38 on the front. I want black lowers so didn't order the orange one comes with frame, although it might be a good deal as it could be the new gen 38 at a good price.
- Will move over my Intend Trinity, love it, best brake I had.
- Wheels I'm thinking Berd, the 1500g wheelset, I'm just a mediocre rider do not hit hard and I kinda want a 'lightweight' build and I do select the 600wh (well enough for my typical angry-wift-and-young-kid-waiting-at-home ride lol). Otherwise just move my Specialized Roval Carbon over, nothing fancy.
- One up 35mm rise bar and 40mm stem just to match other bikes and give the same feel. I love 35mm bar come with 760mm width so I don't need to cut it!
- Considering AXS dropper if I can find a good deal.
- Going to miss the auto-shift thing on Amflow as seems the motor-derailleur cable hard to get? Let's see then.
- Not sure what's the default crank length for RH2, if it more than 160mm I'll put some new crank as well.

Rumor says a new gen of the e13 sidekick coming, less weight.

The latter.

The money is in the motor systems, access to all the premium brands' customer bases.

The Amflow came about because no one would look at the motor seriously initially.

To limit the motor only to Amflow product would cost them 90% of their potential motor sales. They aren't that stupid.

Good news, the new frame comes with the sram/axs cable!

Isn’t there a new Zeb coming too? I’m guessing my order will be the current Zeb, but I thought I remember reading a new Zeb coming early 2026. That’d be sick if it came with it but I doubt it will.

Wow that's awesome!

I hope so but I don't see new Zeb rumor (maybe i'm under a cave) and the current gen is not heavily disocunt at all, so maybe later in the year?
New 38 Pinkbike post a photo a few month back and Fox discounts the current gen like crazy now. Also I have a friend told me some youtubers received the new gen 38 and testing. However the new 38 doesn't seem too exiciting, will be like the new 36s, redesign bridge, etc.

Yes, but the M2 was going to be heavier, and the weights the same. I think someone is cashing in on the speculation.

And the touchscreen must be the same one on the M1, because it requires FCC approval, which cannot be granted on a new DJI communication device in the US. The screen has the Sim Card, Bluetooth and other wireless communication protocols. The current touchscreen got FCC approval before Dec 23rd because of it's communication device status, so is fine in the US.

There's a new screen coming as well as motor and batteries. Some of tbe Euro brands that are gonna be releasing Avinox bikes in the spring should have them.

FYI stay away from high engagement hubs with VPP rear suspension.

Uffff! I forgot about that. I have some purple Onyx classics on a set of mx tr41’s that have been waiting to go back on a bike. I was actually considering selling them as they are CL and I am over CL hubs.

I had them on my Levo, but then found a ‘good deal’ on a set of tr37’s with Vespers and have been running them. I thought, for sure, I would have destroyed them by now from everything I have read. Vespers still holding strong though, and I like how the thinner tr37’s feel with a 2.5 tire over the 41’s. The wheels themselves feel better too.

I dont know if I can go back to a hub that makes ANY noise 😬😂
 
does anyone know if this was already the full stock going online or just a reserved stock for previous buyers?
 
During the Black Friday sales, I picked up a new orange Fox 38, Shimano M8220 brakes, GX Transmission groupset, and a oneup v3 dropper. I have a PNW carbon bar on my current bike that will be moved over. Will prob have a set of Spanks with hope pro5 hubs built or see if I can find anything on marketplace before April. I kinda want to get a DHX2 to swap with the stock Vivid coil... maybe someone with a raw carbon order wants to trade?

Not sure, but it looks like some of the options are already gone. I guess they have some allocated to dealers too.

So you think he might reload some stock after an ‘official’ announcement is made?

I am not a past customer. I'm just a psycho that checked the crestline website every minute and saw it on sale. I did sign up on the site to get notification, but I did not get an email. So I guess that email went out to past customers only.

Now this makes more sense to me. I will just shut up until sunday :ROFLMAO:
 
Shame on you, you will banned from all new Crestline sales! 😂
You may only purchase used Crestlines now……I’ll let you know when I’m done with mine.
