177 When Frame Builders 'Get' Bike Fit - Parlee Cycles Deep Dive with Tom Rodi

How did Parlee Cycles become one of the world's finest builders of custom carbon frames when it was never their intention to build custom frames in the first place?

Join me for this weeks fascinating discussion with Tom Rodi, one of the masterminds behind Parlee Cycles and their current production manager.

Tom's been there for every step of Parlee's journey including their recent rollercoaster and revival post pandemic and Bob Parlee's sad passing back in 2024.

So there's no one better than Tom to answer my questions.

We discuss who benefits most from custom carbon bikes in the modern era, the art of determining what customers really want from their machines, if modern gravel geomtery is really progressive?

And what happens when a bike fitter quizzes a manufacturer about integrated cable routing...

We got through a lot!

So grab a cuppa and some biscuits and settle in for Tom Rodi in conversation! Exciting news about the future of Parlee Cycles!
