Looking to get into biking more often, the last bike I had a few years ago I got for free and have no clue what size it was. Mainly looking to bike on paved pathways so I was looking at this Specialized Allez bike. Would like to know if it looks ok condition, and also if the size should generally work?

I’m 5’6” with around a 28” inseam, give or take an inch. The bike is a 52cm. Would appreciate some input. Thanks!

  1. Seems like 52 might be about right for a 5’6” person but give it a try. I do want to mention that you want that hook holding the bike up to be up against the front brake. I positioned it like you have once and the front wheel rotated when going over bumps and such freeing the bike. Thankfully my bike didn’t go to the ground as I used the integrated cable lock which kept the support close enough to prevent that.
