21 Sep Flights of fancy: Dream bikes ride test
Cyclist magazine (UK) has put a handful of dream bikes on test (click to open the full review on the Cyclist site) to answer the question: “If money were no object, what bike would you buy?”
The full review (also here as PDF) has one of the best quotes ever – we won’t spoil it – take a read – but in summary:
“The Parlee takes everything in its refined stride, distilling each corner into a few, easily executable movements. And thanks to the disc brakes, it has incredibly assured and equally rapid stopping power.”
“‘It’s like the perfect blend of carbon stiffness and steel springiness, though with the emphasis on the stiff.”
