2021 Specialized Allez Elite Road Bike

2021 SPECIALIZED ALLEZ ELITE ROAD BIKE
The Allez is Specialized's entry-level road bike and this Elite model features Shimano 105 shifting and Axis 1.0 caliper brakes. The E5 alloy frame is paired with a carbon fork for a stiff, strong construction together with stable, responsive handling. The FACT carbon also helps to damp vibrations for smoother riding. A versatile geometry suits a range of rider positions, and although it's slightly more relaxed than some, it's still oriented towards performance.

Not only does a lightweight bike feel better when you're climbing up a hill, but it's also essential when you're carrying your bike up to the 5th floor, and this was at the forefront of the frame design. With a redesigned E5 Alloy frame, the Allez features a class-leading weight. Aggressively thin-walled, yet tough, tubes have been implemented to save weight and this results in over a 450-gram reduction in the frame and fork alone when compared to some models of yesteryear

Entry-level road bikes often times feature either alloy or cheap carbon fiber forks that greatly detract from the overall ride quality. But with a full FACT carbon fiber fork, the Allez is better handling, smoother riding, and lower in weight—floating over rough chip-seal and carving through corners like a slalom skier.

For the geometry, we developed the Allez by utilizing our vast Retül fit database. This meant creating a geometry that's sure to cover a broad range of positions, while still providing the performance-minded handling you'd expect from your first bike.

This Allez also features integrated rack and fender mounts, allowing you to get weight of your backpack off you and onto a lightweight rack. This not only makes for a good road bike, but it also enables you to transform it into a fast commuter.
