Tim's Chebacco with Classified Hub

This week we're featuring Tim's Parlee Chebacco rebuilt with a Classified Hub.

Tim is a loyal client who has traveled with us to Europe multiple times for multi-day bicycle adventures.  He's also the proud owner of a Custom Parlee  Z-Zero and a No.22 as well.

After seeing Ruedi's Sturdy, Tim was intrigued by the Classified system's technology and the additional gear range it offered.  As an experienced athlete, he's particular about gear ratios and wanted to retain a 1X system while gaining ultimate freedom of gear options.

The Classified Hub allows a rider to run a 1X system with all the benefits of a 2X system and the additional benefits of better chain line and Classified's Quantum Shifting tech.

We took the opportunity to upgrade the groupset to GRX 12 speed wireless with an XTR rear derailleur.  He previously had GRX 11 speed wired 1X but he wanted more range and the new tech also allowed his groupset to be fully wireless.

Tim loves the bike and is considering giving the Classified treatment to his future projects.  Congratulations Tim!
