Specialized Allez Sport 2012

The Allez range has been designed around the race winning carbon Tarmac range making it ideal for those wanting to get the most speed from every pedal stroke. The riding position is more aerodynamic to help reach that higher speed, but medically tested and tweaked to keep you comfortably in the saddle for longer. The stable handling will have you feeling at one with this bike so you can enter every corner with the confidence you need to have you riding faster

Features:

• Light and stiff A1 Aluminium smooth welded frame with integrated headset give carbon aesthetics and exciting performance.
• Lightweight FACT carbon fork reduces vibrations to give a smoother ride and precision steering.
• DT-Axis 1.0 wheelset is significantly lighter than comparable-level wheelsets, these tough hoops roll smooth and fast
• 12-degree reversible stem with 31.8mm bar clamp for strength and versatile positioning
• Reliable and affordable Shimano Sora gearing with compact chainset.

With the looks and feel of a much more expensive road bike, the Allez Sport is the best buy by far at this price range. Ride faster. Feel better. Ride an Allez Sport.
