Crişul Repede (Romanian Crişul Repede; Hungarian Sebes-Körös) is a river in Bihor county, Crişana, Romania and in southeastern Hungary (Körösvidek). Together with the rivers Crişul Alb (White Criş) and Crişul Negru (Black Criş), it makes up the Three Criş rivers ("Cele Trei Crişuri"). These are considered the main rivers in the Crişana region of Romania. Historically, when Crişana was recognised as an official region (today, Romania is divided into 40 counties), the Criş rivers were the most important rivers of the region.

The Crişul Repede river runs through the city of Oradea, the capital of Bihor county. It flows into the Körös (Criş) river near Gyomaendrőd, in Hungary.
