New travel with a bike project started with a big disappointment. 2024 Allez Sprint Satin Fog Tint Brush / Black Pearl.
No replacement or return available since my sister signed the delivery paper without checking the damaged. She then realized a minute later and asks the delivery guy but he says it is not their problem anymore
So i have this beautiful frame with an early scare.
I will post how it will turn out
2024 Specialized Allez Sprint
2021 Emonda SLR 9
2019 BMC URS ONE 1

Just finished my 24 Allez Sprint size 58. as pictured 7.945kg.
Dura ace 9100 di2. 165mm cranks, 140mm front and rear.
Avian Falcon bars 38 x 120. Intergrated wahoo mount with go pro attached removed.
Zipp 404 Firecrest GP5000S TT 28mm front / 30mm S TR rear . set up tubless.
Ali Express Bootle cages 15g each and 3D printed power saddle copy.
Dura ace Pedals.
Considering lightweight expander plug, galfer rotors and HY seatpost or Darimo seatpost to get it down to 7.79ish. Any recomendations let me know!

During the past winter, I build up my Allez Sprint. Finally, in March, I had finally had the opportunity to take ride outdoors. Initially unimpressed by the frame color in photos, I purchased it at a reasonable price with plans to custom paint it. However, I must admit, the color truly shines in person!

Wow is that a factory finished paint ? where can I get it.
I dont know why you people ride or buy Allez Sprint frames
But I must admit I am tempted to buy one too and go with a alloy handlebar (Pro pursuit sprint) and never have to worry about anything...
On a 6.6 disc bike today with the worlds lightest components (including THM Clavivcula SE) and every time I am afraid something happened or it will crack or something will *f##k* up my ride. Too much headache. The Allez Sprint looks like a bulletproof rocket ship

The raw frame would also be kinda cool to anodize at a professional shop. Instead of paint, anodize the whole frame and every other alloy pay (stem, handlebar, etc). No weight pentaly and almost scratch resistant.
Yeah, this is the Chameleon oil paint from the 2022 frameset. https://www.specialized.com/nl/nl/allez ... 042-189820eucalyptus wrote: ↑Tue Apr 02, 2024 11:55 amWow is that a factory finished paint ? where can I get it.

Fairly sure I'm about to buy a frame and build it up. I have a spare SL7 stem I would quite like to use. Where are you guys getting your spacers so that there's a nice transition from the headset (obviously you're not all using the SL7 stem but I'm seeing several non-round stems)? Are you printing them yourselves? I don't have those skills

Just built this up.
58cm frame
Sl7 stem
Roval terra 38cm bars
Enve 5.6
30mm vittoria
Ti king cages
Galfer rotors
Force hoods and brakes
Rival XPLR mech and 10-44 force cassette
Alugear 50t on red 170mm cranks
Aerocoach chain catcher
7.95kg's with pedals and cages. I could definitely shed some weight with different wheels but ENVE
Rides so fine.
Interesting to see that they have changed the colour/visibility of the branding on the silver frames between MY23/MY24. The Specialized logo is hardly visible on my frame, no matter what the light is like.
As I also have a few "scars" on my Allez Sprint and the paint seems to be quite thick, I was thinking about stripping the paint and just going with the "bare" alloy frame and some clear coating, similar to their MY14 S-Works Allez frameset.
Has anyone done this before? Anything to consider? What would be the potential weight saving?
