Starfuckers in production with their ‘trick’ bike.

Seriously is this just changing the look of a bicycle frame for the sake of it or does it have purpose?
I can see that a bar spin would be easier but is that it?
Frames don’t get made like this anymore for a reason… FLEX.
I once had a frame that looked like this and that turned out to be a piece of crap.
Alpinestars had some lovely frames in the 90s however but they ended up being phased out by a more ‘traditional’ double triangle set up, obviously because the double or triple triangle ( favoured by the likes of GT ) had way more longevity in aesthetics and performance.
We will see how this goes but what I will say is this… I am sure ‘Starfuckers’ are responsible for introducing BMX bars to track bikes and for that I will never forgive them.
