Well, more of a slider.

Please, no. Can these people not shift body position?
I kind of get it, but it's just another thing to go wrong.
Interesting concept - prob the same things that people said about dropper posts
95mm is way to long for current trail stem length trends. Could reverse it up however, be great for learning to do wheelies and manuals. 😉
'Coz biking is hard.
😥
Changing position on the fly makes sense, but it's just a bit wrong 😐
You need the same adjustment on the seapost head and some telescopic extending handlebars to go with it 😛
HOW MUCH?!?!?
So now to go down a hill I have to
* Switch shape shifter frame
* Unlock shock
* Unlock fork
* Drop seatpost
* Move stem
This is getting silly
Is that web page ded jerky on anyone else's computer? - either that or even my pc thinks it's a shit idea
275 Euros!
I made one of these (badly) for my Design Technology GCSE back in 1994.
Interesting idea.
Essentially trying to do the same thing that height adjustable forks, U-turn etc, have been pitched at for some time.
Tweak rider position for going up/along/down...
Looks odd but then so did droppers at first...
Too pricey though...
At no real point do I want my stem length to change on a ride, the same can't be said for seat height and suspension compression/lockout. Travel adjust seems to be getting finished off by better frame geo which reduce the need to drop the front as much.
As for the fact it looks like a slider rail with a pin and likely to trap clothes etc and maybe the chance of the stem sliding off the front...

I don't want this unless they make it look cool.
Another kickstarter that won't make its money...
