Review: Starling Spur - No Derailleur, No Worries?
This Starling is a pretty much the Jaguar E-Type of the bike world.
It's not trying to be everything, and it's certainly not buying into the same marketing of how every 150mm+ travel bike has to pedal like it has "so much less than the numbers". We all happily know that's marketing bullshit when there's a conventional drivetrain strapped to the bike, but somehow putting a gearbox there makes this sacrifice untenable.
Sometimes owning a bike is about more than just percentage points of power, or whether it is the fastest or lightest. Starling have gone and made something they think is beautiful and people who agree will go and buy it. The rest of you can go on and sour grapes your way into owning something more efficient without a hint of the soul that this bike has and pretend you got a better deal.

You can shift into a heavier gear with pedal load.
To shift into an easier gear you need to unload.
A week's worth of adjustment overcomes this "issue" and work around the quirks.
