Phillip Bannister (Putney/West Hill) took a decisive win in the Masters 65-69 category at the 2015 Cyclocross Nationals, crossing the line solo after distancing himself from a group of four riders that had previously remained with him at the front of the race. After his win, we took a closer look at Bannister’s winning ride, a custom Parlee CX.

Top-mounted braze on cable routing keeps things neat on Bannister’s Parlee CX. Options are available for Di2 and EPS systems that utilize internal cable routing.
Lugging and braze on cable guides give the Parlee CX a decidedly classic appearance, despite being a modern carbon race bike. Sealed Gore Ride-On cables help keep shifting working well without a visit to the pits. © Cyclocross Magazine
