Revamped Specialized Allez: A Bargain with Disc Brakes and Larger Clearance.

Specialized has launched a revamped version of its Allez road bike, featuring disc brakes and larger clearance for tyres. The Allez is designed as a "do-it-all bike choice for a road rider who is potentially just getting into the sport and who wants one bike for commutes, group rides and entering their first race". The bike is available in two spec levels, with prices starting at £1,100 ($1,200) for the base model. The new Allez is made of the same E5 aluminium alloy as the outgoing bike, but Specialized has tweaked its geometry, which is now the same as the Roubaix carbon endurance bike across the size range.
