Parlee Z1 Frameset size 55
TIMELESS STYLE, STUNNING PERFORMANCE, You have ridden the rest. Now you are ready for the best. Cliché?
Perhaps. But truth is, we hear that all the time here at Parlee. It
means you have done your homework and now are ready to buy the last road
bike you’ll ever need. You are ready for a hand-crafted, best-in-class
Parlee Z1, the world’s benchmark full-custom carbon road bike.
This is the bike that put Parlee on the map. No other frame requires as
much time or skill to build. And even today, 10 years after initial
introduction, the Z1 remains respected, revered and coveted. There is
simply no better bike on the market. Period.
Whether you’re a corner-diving criterium racer, bumpy back-road
adventurer, or high-mountain master, each Parlee Z1 is built to the
exact standards, needs, expectations and specifications of its user.
There are no compromises, no second bests, no conciliations, no
concessions. The Parlee Z1 is the conduit to both personal peak
performance and individual two-wheeled self expression.
The 100-percent custom Parlee Z1 can be modified in both one-millimeter
and 0.1-degree increments in frame sizes from 40cm to 70cm. Custom
carbon fiber lug lay-up combined with five tube set choices allows for
perfect optimization and ride tuning. Z1s are also available with
semi-sloping geometry up to 8 degrees, and can be upgraded with one of
five custom crafted tube sets: the benchmark UD, super light SL, extra
stiff XL, compliant CL, or visually alluring X-woven. Hidden, internal
Shimano Di2 wiring is also available.
Each year, after logging thousands of miles on bikes from all across
the globe, the editors of Bicycling Magazine select one bike as the
ultimate, cost-is-no-object dream bike. The Parlee Z1 is that bike.
