PARLEE CYCLES
Parlee Cycles, originally founded in Woburn, MA (USA) in 1999, is known globally as a technical innovator and leader in high-performance carbon fibre bicycles.
Emerging from the world of performance boats, founder Bob Parlee was one of the first to successfully leverage high-tech carbon fibre composite materials in road bicycles in the early 2000’s. Parlee received acclaim early on for his ability to combine comfort and performance in a single bike, key to athletes looking to spend long days in the saddle. Bob was also one of the early pioneers who was able to truly build a customisable carbon fibre bicycle.
Personalisation and customisation were always important to its founder so it was not a surprise when Parlee Cycles began custom painting in house in 2007. The now four-person strong Parlee Paint Lab is renowned globally for it’s highly detailed custom paint work.
Currently head-quartered in Beverly, MA (USA), approximately an hour north of Boston, Parlee produces a wide range of carbon fibre performance bicycles, including road race, triathlon, cyclocross and gravel/adventure models.
Parlee Cycles has steadily grown since inception and their bicycles are exclusively available via independent retailers around the world.
