Thread resurrection

Just wondering if any of you have had your Starling for a decent amount of time.

How's the bearings going? Just wondering if the single pivot is as fit and forget as an Orange, or does the 'positive flex' the bikes are known for has an effect on bearing life

I've done roughly 500km on mine and no issues yet, had to nip up the rear shock bolts on the first few rides but otherwise it's all good.

Any new additions? Photos and what kind of weights are people getting

Thinking about ordering a short travel twist in the current lockdown offer

I want to check the weight of mine again as its been creeping up with various changes (coil shock, different stem, now 12 speed). In isolation it doesn't feel too bad, but compared to my other bikes it's a bit hefty- I'd guess around 35lb ish. Mind you, I only really notice when I need to carry it over a gate or something.

Just got mine last weekend. What a bike! Weighs about 16kg, or about the same as my carbon Nomad V4. Most of what I ride is steep climb followed by steep descent, so not an issue for me.
