Presumably it's for barspins.

I did wonder that actually.

Still, I've never seen a rear mech cable touching the front wheel

Maybe as the wheel rotates faster it changes gear?

Have you seen the seller info:

Business seller information
Eagles nest

Shouldn't that be 'Rats Nest'.
Looks a tidy build apart from the cables - why would you not even shorten the gear cable?
It'd probably only cost then about £20 to get the brake hoses shortened at an LBS.

He probably swaps the brakes over to his Gnarcisist now and then....

Perhaps the cables are like that to help clear the mud from the front tyre ?
