Parlee Cycles Factory Tour: Massachusetts, USA

Parlee Cycles Factory Tour: “We founded Parlee in 2000 with a simple but lofty goal: to build the best bikes in the world. With 20 years’ experience in the boat-building business, I understood the capabilities of composite materials. Carbon fiber was the obvious choice to take performance bikes to the next level, but this incredibly capable material wasn’t being utilized to its full potential.“ - Chapters: 0:00 Introduction to Parlee Cycles 0:46 Meet Tom Rodi & the CEO of Parlee Cycles 1:20 Design, Supply Chain Management & History 3:30 Parlee Production & Showroom 4:22 Carbon Cutting 6:12 Steel Molds 7:13 Machine Shop 8:03 Frame Building Jig 8:48 Cured Frame Sections 10:39 Custom Frame on the Jig 11:37 Parlee Paint Lab 13:39 Parlee Taos Gravel Bike 20:00 Parlee Z-Zero XD Custom 21:08 Parlee Ouray 22:04 Closing 23:16 General Madness In this video, JOM of the Gravel Cyclist crew meets with Tom Rodi & Crew of Parlee Cycles, for an in-depth tour of their facility!
