"This is my very first post, on any site...I've been a completive Ultimate Frisbee player, started Road biking 10years ago to cross train for Ultimate. My first purchase and only purchase until now was a steel frame Cevelo Prodege. Over 10years i up graded components as i road more making my bike better. With everything being upgraded, three years ago i started thinking i'll start researching frames. Initially, my first thought was a ti Seven, Kent Ericksen, Strong, Fi, Moots....more Ti bikes because all carbon bikes were looking like race cars, not my style, then came Serotta, Colnago,BMC but still wanted something different and more unique, with the best technology and engineering. After much research over three years, and apparently not talking to the right dealers or googling the right key phases...a local detail and an experienced biker, said how about PARLEE, i said "never heard of it".
Based mainly on his opinion and his description of the bike and the builder, became extremely interested, and thought long and hard in pulling the trigger. I am one to really research so i am 100% convinced that it is the right decision, i actually had not done this in this case. After signing the papers and making the commitment, i then started researching everything. To my amazement, the bike and manufacture meet up to my expectations."
My prodege was all white, simliar to the black one on here.....it would attract alot of attention!!! Is there a demand for steel frame Crevelo Prodeges out there? What would our reads suggest doing with this bike, keep it or sell it?????
