Crestline Bikes on Adaptability, Collaboration, & Founding a Bike Brand

Crestline Bikes has been teasing some extremely interesting-looking prototypes — especially their high-pivot VPP DH bike — but details on the project have been scarce. So we sat down with founder Troydon Murison and suspension designer Jimmy Davis (of Cascade Components) to talk about the project, including a whole lot of details on their upcoming lineup; founding the company & involving some big names, including Jimmy and Cesar Rojo; getting advice from Greg Minnaar and Neko Mulally; & much more.TOPICS & TIMES:Origins of Crestline (3:43)Building the team & The GOAT (14:09)Jimmy getting involved (17:28)Model lineup (18:11)High-pivot VPP DH bike (25:07)Adaptability & bike design (28:50)When will it be available?
