Parlee?

I forgot about the Parlee. It is also a nice road/gravel bike.
Takes big tires but still feels very light and nimble on the road.
When I had mine- I rode it as a road bike for 2 weeks while in Hawaii. Did Haleakala and all that sort of thing.

And you can find the post mount older versions for cheap. If you don't mind post mount brakes this can make for a sweet bike for small $.

The only thing I didn't like about the Parlee was their headset cover. It tends to move off center and it it is a pool for water if you ride in the rain or hose off the bike.
Once I pulled my bike off the hook and a bunch of rusty water dumped out.
