She might not be much to most, but to me she's perfect. This is my Specialized Allez I bought for around $1200 brand new in 2018. I've never upgraded a thing. The pedals are stock, the seat is stock, original brake pads and 3 tuneups later; she's taken me 9,000+ miles across Portland OR, Cape Cod Massachusetts and Philly and its burbs. She gets me to and from work every day. Heres to 9,000 more miles Baby Blue 💙 🎉

Nice bike
Very nice! although I have been using hydraulic disc now for the last 10 years (out of 48) the best thing you can do to improve rim brakes is to use Koolstop (Salmon/Black) dual compund pads. They saved my ass a few times in some races when crashes happened in front of me. They also make it much easier on your hands on long decents!!
Nice. Allez is a great bike with a high upgrade potential. I love the colour.Â
Congratulations! Good value!
