Crestline RS 181.2 thread – builds, reviews, technical info

Received tracking on my team build overnight…. Arriving next week ️️️

Right on!

Sram Power Cable… does anyone have one they don’t intend to use? Mine was damaged upon arrival and doesn’t work. Sadly we can’t get a new one as Sram is saying October. Hoping the Crestline community is kind and is willing to help me out. I’m in California.

I have a brand new AXS Extension Cord that's compatible with Shimano EP8 motor.

If you can verify ability to splice the cable that came with your damage extension cord or an Avinox compatible headlight or similar cable to it, I'll give it to you.

I'm using a 34.9mm Oaks Components Seat Post Clamp on my Crestline S180. It should be the same size as RS181.2 since they both run a 31.8mm diameter dropper post.

First mtb in 20 years. Pretty excited for this CSS team edition.

Assembly was super easy for those that are curious. Swapped to a set of carbon 760mm oneup bars / added oneup clip in pedals plus a few other small tweaks.
