Parlee Cycles Taos First Look

Parlee Cycles Taos Gravel Bike (and more)

“The all new Taos was inspired by the soul stirring landscape and endless riding options around Taos, New Mexico, at the foot of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. A place where trust in your connection to the bike is essential, to confidently transition from pavement to service road to mountain single track to winding canyon descents and back to the road again. Immersing you in the ancient power of the high desert sun.” – Parlee Cycles

“We took everything we love about our Chebacco and filtered it through a modern cyclist’s perspective to create a bike capable of winning today’s blazingly fast 100-mile gravel races and crushing all-day epics alike.”

Handmade in the EU

“Our new precision layup process creates a perfect frame, both functionally and aesthetically. Like our new Ouray road bike, each piece of UD carbon fiber ply is meticulously placed to create a frame that requires no cosmetic layers, filler, bonding agents, or paint.”

“This level of finish quality is extremely hard to do -it’s why almost no one else does it- but the result is a perfect finish, straight out of the mold. That’s why we offer it with a bare nude waxed finish to showcase the ultimate in precision carbon manufacturing.”

“Clearance for up to 700×50 tires let you run any rubber you want. Suspension-corrected geo lets you add a suspension fork without altering ride quality. And a front axle flip-chip lets you adjust the wheelbase and head angle when using smaller tires for a more road-biased ride quality.”

“Run it 1x or 2x with a removable front derailleur mount. Combine that with fender mounts, internal downtube storage, top tube bag mounts, and stealth dropper seatpost routing and you have a bike that’s ready for any adventure, whether you’re racing the clock or chasing daylight.”
