Parlee Cycles Bike Parts & Accessories

Parlee Cycles is a US-based manufacturer of production and custom carbon fiber road bikes. The company also offers its stem, bar, seatpost, and fork individually. Bikes, parts, and swag are available from dealers throughout the U.S., Europe, Australia, and Asia; the company also sells everything but the bikes directly via its online store and shippable worldwide.

Begun in 2000 by Bob Parlee, a boat builder and expert in the working of carbon fiber, Parlee Cycles has focused from its inception on creating high-performance road bikes, purpose-built and eschewing fanciful touches. The result is a line of bikes with a particular aesthetic governed by function over form, quite elegant in its purity of vision.

The production bikes include all-round road racers, gravel grinders, aero speedsters, and time trial/triathlon bikes. Multiple build kits are offered, groups from SRAM, Shimano, and Campagnolo matched with complementary gear from Zipp, DT Swiss, and the like. Frames are fitted to the rider with the company's stack-and-reach kits, providing a precise fit for almost any rider. Custom paint options are many.

Custom builds span the gamut of Parlee's capacity, with custom tubing, geometry, fittings, even bottom bracket threading; paint, components, and mounts can all be spec'ed by the discerning rider. Touring, track, time trial, road and all-road models are offered. The company works with the cyclist to ensure that their desires are met exactly.

Parlee makes high-performance bikes, and backs them with a lifetime warranty. A potentially very satisfying addition to any road rider's stable.
