STARLING TWIST

Hard Hitting Trail and Enduro Mullet MTB

Starling’s mid-travel, mullet-wheeled and bullshit-free steel mountain bike.

The Twist is our tough-as-nails, corner-slashing, do-it-all single-pivot.

It has 135mm rear travel, mullet wheels and our award-winning, bullshit-busting, handmade steel frame that’s made with Reynolds 853.

That perfect compliant steel ‘feel’ creates a one-of-a-kind ride feel that’ll handle everything from your local singletrack to your once-in-a-lifetime season in the mountains.

Just two bearings to maintain. Zero marketing gimmicks or next-best-thing shithousery.
