That is funky! The Chaos forks were Sunn's own?

Yes... They made some other models too.

I had some Obsys forks on the xircuit I once briefly owned

So up till now, I'd assumed Starway was nothing more, than a supermarket bike. However thanks to the link nico provided, they appear to have made some fairly decent frames. This one comes equipped with xcpro.

Just got these, this morning. Advertised as being simplex prototypes :roll: they look very similar to mavic wishbone shifters. On disraeli gears, the author mentions that mavic were rumored to have made there derailleurs through simplex. Most likely the shifters also. The same seller also sold a nos solida crankset (wanted something different). Quite nice and light, but the rings themselves are heavy. These will go on my pre vbrake french build.
