Introduction
A first look at Crestline's new EEB, the 75 / 50. With a mullet, or full 29er, big travel EMTB
Crestline is a small bike company passionate about creating gravity-oriented focused bikes for their local area and sharing them with like-minded riders across the world. They have developed a long-travel (175MM rear / 180mm fork) that fills a gap in the industry. In this article, we will delve into the details of the Crestline EMTB, its electronics package, frame, and configurations.
Electronics Package
The Crestline EMTB uses the Bosch Race motor, which offers punchy performance and refined pedaling input. It also integrates the Bosch Kiox display unit countersunk in the top tube, making it less prone to impacts during crashes. The System Controller is mounted under the top tube, which provides a unique and convenient way of integrating the electronics.
Crestline's EMTB uses a 750Wh battery, which is removable, and can also be adapted to fit a 625Wh battery using their provided adapter. This option saves weight on the bike without compromising the range. The charging location is conveniently located at the top of the bike, making it easy to plug in without crouching down.
Frame
The Crestline frame is manufactured by VIP Composites in Vietnam, a factory that also produces high-end frames for other top brands like Pivot, Trek, and Orbea. The frame's quality is comparable to other high-end brands, and it's available in two configurations: a shorter travel with 150mm rear travel and 160mm fork, and a longer travel with 175mm rear travel and 180mm fork.
Configurations and Rear Linkage
Crestline has partnered with Cascade Components to provide the rear linkage for their EMTB. Cascade is a well-recognized brand that has been modifying and making rear linkages for top-end brands for a long time.
The Crestline EMTB offers various configurations to suit the rider's needs, making it an appealing option for many. The bike's electronics, frame, and configurations make it an innovative and versatile choice for gravity-oriented e-bike enthusiasts.
In conclusion, the Crestline eMTB is an exciting addition to the market, offering a unique, versatile, and highly customizable riding experience. Its long-travel design, paired with the latest Bosch electronics and a wide range of configuration options, make it an appealing choice for riders who crave adventure and want a bike that can handle it all. With its impressive build quality and commitment to innovation, Crestline is a brand to watch in the eMTB world.
