Dillon's Parlor Porteur
Thomas Callahan
Simple and understated, this bike sings a quiet beautiful song when you take her for a spin. Dillon Edwards from Parlor Coffee wanted exactly that. Something he could make rounds on visiting local Brooklyn customers while enjoying a bike made just for him that sings. Stout, simple, built for a front load, this single speed is made out of 100% US made True Temper double butted steel. Fenders and a simple reflector keep it safe and dry. A Hand stamped copper down tube badged is the only branding on the bike. The final touches were the hand carved seat tube cluster and the custom quill stem with brass topper.
Dillon is a super rad dude and is really passionate about what he does. Meticulous in his approach to quality. It is a pleasure working with someone who displays these traits in there own life, the same traits we at Horse strive for. Such an honer to build this bicycle for him, knowing he loves it, and knowing he rides it hard.
Parlor Coffee is a local Brooklyn Coffee Roaster in the Navy Yard just off of Vanderbilt. Like Horse its a manufacturing facility and not a shop store front, however they do have cupping's open to the public every Sunday so stop by and say hi, have some coffee and look out for Dillion's lovely bicycle.
