Showcase: Parlee Z3 Medium
View the Gallery
We built up the first Parlee frame we ordered for stock as a lightweight climbing bike. This is the result, which is a beautiful light, strong and efficient machine. We chose lightweight components that could be used in real racing conditions, rather than super light components that would break if used. Here is the list of components we chose for the first iteration:
Frame, Parlee Z3
Fork, Reynolds Ouzo Pro
Headset, Chris King
Crankset, Stronglight Pulsion ActiveLink integrated bottom bracket/crank, with ceramic coated compact chainrings, 50/34
Seatpost, Thomson Masterpiece setback
Saddle, FSA carbon
Levers, Campagnolo Record Ergo
Front Derailleur, Campagnolo Record Compact
Rear Derailleur, Campagnolo Record Short Cage
Chain, Campagnolo Ultra Narrow
Cable Housings, Nokon
Cables, brake, Nokon
Cables, shift, Power Cords
Bottle cage, Profile 21 g
Cassette, Campagnolo Record all-titanium, 12-25
Lockring, Wheels Mfg, alloy
Skewers, M2 Racer
Wheels, Reynolds KOM
Tires, Vittoria Pista EVO
Since this is a work in progress, we will update the bike with better components when available, and will create new galleries at that time. For now, enjoy!
