Specialized launches the New Allez Sprint
The new allez sprint is here. They've taken the Tarmac SL7, stripped it down and rebuilt it from aluminum using Smartweld technology.
All the innovations and knowledge learned during its development have been used to create the new Allez Sprint.
Whether you're chasing a national title or going out of your way to attack your grupetta mates on Sunday starts, you might mistake the Allez for a Tarmac SL7.
Some may call her a copy, but Spelialized prefer to call her the world's first aluminum superbike.

AERO IS EVERYTHING
The Allez Sprint is the fastest aluminum road bike ever.
Details like the aluminum steerer tube and integrated cables make it 41 seconds faster over 40 km than the previous Allez Sprint. It's a great makeover.
OPTIMIZED POWER TRANSFER
La One-piece bottom bracket and down tube of the Allez Sprint offer the ruthless efficiency of aluminum with unprecedented stability. The Allez Sprint keeps you fast and confident on the edge.
UNMATCHED DRIVING QUALITY
The Tarmac SL7's low seat stays and carbon fork and seatpost make the Allez Sprint flexible in the saddle and precise on the bars, all with Tarmac SL7 geometry. It is as comfortable as it is beautiful.
SMARTWELD
One innovation more than another helps us deliver the aerodynamics, power transfer and handling of the new Allez Sprint.
The bottom bracket has been hydroformed and the down tube from a single piece of aluminum, the most complex aluminum head tube has been built, and then everything has come together with Smartweld.
This is what makes the Allez Sprint the first aluminum superbike.
The Allez has been in Specialized's lineup for 41 years and has welcomed more riders onto the road than any other bike.
It's a heritage we're incredibly proud of, and we know the new Allez Sprint will continue that tradition, only faster than ever.
FEES
The range goes from €1.050 to €3.300 for the Allez Sprint Comp
