Built for the perfect blend of raw speed and raw fun.
The Starling Cycles Twist Enduro is our take on the mullet with a monster-truck 29″ wheel up front and a fast, fun 27.5″ wheel out back.
With 160mm rear travel, mullet wheels and plenty of tyre clearance, it’s built to party.
The 29″ front wheel offers a ton of stability for monster-trucking through rough terrain. The 27.5″ wheel will slash turns, whip through your tightest and techiest and guarantee that speed goes hand-in-hand with fun.
Starling Cycles are made by real flesh-and-blood humans. The perfect blend of precision and passion.
Our frames are hand-crafted with quality, lightweight steel for an unmistakable feel and undeniable speed.
Our single-pivot suspension design eliminates complexity. A blast to ride and a breeze to maintain.
