Click PLAY or read on to learn all about what’s coming up.

Do the Twist

First up, the big one, the new Starling Cycles Twist.

The Twist is our brand new bike. It’s the love-child of a Swoop and a Murmur with a monster-truck 29″ wheel up front and a fast, fun and flicky 27.5″ wheel out back.

The new mullet-machine is available now, with everything you need to know right here.

UK Made (again)

As you guys know, we made the big jump to ORA Engineering in Taiwan for 2019.

The big news for 2020 is that we’re now manufacturing in the UK again. Well, mostly. We’ll continue to work with ORA for our swing-arms.

All front triangles will now be handmade in the UK at Starling HQ. If you’ve been on the fence about a Starling because you wanted a handmade, British bike this is what you’ve no doubt been waiting for.

The video above will explain more about why we made the big move.

Adjustable Travel

And last but not least, a massive update for all bikes from now on.

All Murmur, Twist and Swoop bikes are now available with as shorter travel options OR with adjustable travel.

This change came from you guys. You asked us for shorter travel options, we tried it, we like it and we decided to make it widely available.

You can learn all about how it works and what we’re offering over on our new Custom Travel page here.
