This week, I’m joined by Joe McEwan, the main man behind Starling Cycles. Starling made quite an entrance when Steve Jones from Dirt picked up on their 29er Murmur and started raving about how good it was. We chat about how Joe went from aerospace engineer to bike company owner, why a carbon fibre expert chooses to make steel bikes, some hot topics like 29ers and bike weight, and Joe gives us some inside info on his latest prototypes.
