The Crestline RS 181.2 Forge Series ONE Frameset is a limited-edition, high-performance eMTB platform designed for riders who demand uncompromising downhill capability with cutting-edge e-bike technology. Built around Crestline's race-proven RS chassis and powered by the latest DJI Avinox M2S drive system, the RS 181.2 combines exceptional power, refined frame design, and gravity-focused geometry in a boutique carbon package. Only 50 Forge Series ONE framesets were produced, featuring a distinctive forged carbon finish with silver foil graphics. The frame has been redesigned to reduce weight and bulk around the motor area while maintaining Crestline's CAT 5 downhill certification and dual-crown compatibility. Improved internal cable routing, adjustable travel options, customizable chainstay lengths, and compatibility with both full 29" and mixed-wheel configurations make the RS 181.2 one of the most versatile and capable eMTB frames available.
