We paid a visit to Starling Cycles, catching up with founder, Joe McEwan, who has some interesting and exciting projects on the horizon...
Earlier this year, we stopped by the Starling Cycles HQ in Bristol, to find out what founder Joe McEwan has brewing for the company’s future.Joe McEwan outside his new workshop in Bristol, England, with a one-of-a-kind Stainless Starling Twist mixed-wheel enduro bikeThis year, you launched the V3 Murmur, Twist and Swoop frames.
We had some production issue with Effigear, mostly due to Covid supply chains, but it seems they are on top of it now, so we may be offering the Spur again sometime soon! But, I’m also working on a parallel project under a new brand to develop a pretty special ebike, so keep your eyes open for that one….designed in collaboration with the National Composites Centre was an exercise in R&D. The aim? To develop a new high volume, low cost, high-quality manufacturing process for carbon fiber bike frames that is less environmentally damaging than current methods.
My main thought is that nothing is the golden ticket, you always need to pick where you want your compromise to sit. Although, marketing tries to tell you otherwise, it’s just not true! I try to provide a range of bikes that allows you to pick the compromise you want with minimum hassle!Do you have any predictions for where mountain bike technology is headed in the next 10 years, and how will Starling Cycles be a part of that?I have a bit of a conflict on this.
