I had that exact Look 695AL. Loved it! Till it broke.

I'm a big Parlee fan too and I think your Altim looks great. How do the two compare?

I love the look, i could not get settled on the fitment. its maybe a half size too big for me =(
And parts availability was not great/ i would be down for weeks over a brake part - chain ring bolt etc.

the parlee does everything great , maybe a lil stiffer than the 695AL. I'm really like it for climbing.

Damn! The color on that Parlee is awesome, love it and the whole build. For being an XS frame the proportions are great, most S and XS frames look squished but this one is very good looking.

Lovely

Is the Altum frame blue or grey? I can't work it out.

Love the color! Reminds of Colnago's "Fiat Gray".
Awesome build!
