The rear triangle is in alignment with the centerline of the frame to within 1.5 mm (the width of a penny). The rear derailleur hanger is undamaged. The chain stay cable stop is undamaged and clear of obstructions. The down tube cable stop is not damaged and clear of obstructions.

There is 4 mm of brake pad remaining. No pieces of the brake are missing. There are no cracks, bulges, discoloration, flexing or flaking that raise concerns about the structural integrity of the front fork. The crown race is not damaged. The brake calipers work properly and are not damaged. The cartridge bearings turn smoothly and the head set is complete.

Frame and Wheel conclusion
Frame and Wheel’s view is that this Parlee TT will make an excellent choice for the dedicated triathlete who wants to upgrade to a full carbon, high performance aero frame set. Although this Parlee TT shows signs of having spent time in the black hole that is otherwise known as the Transition Zone, it is nevertheless in good condition and ready to return to the road. Built up with SRAM Red components, 3T Brezza II aero bars, and a Zipp 900 / 808 wheel set, this PArlee TT will become a very light and very fast time trial bike that will give the new owner a material advantage in the Race of Truth or the Bike Leg of an Ironman Triathlon. A fine opportunity to obtain a great frame set from Parlee.
