Industry Reviews
The new Specialized Allez, launched today, has switched from rim brakes to disc brakes, with thru-axles replacing quick releases. Frame clearance is also up from the previous bike’s 28mm to provide room for 35mm tyres with 4mm clearance..
In that time, there have been a few changes, but with the latest model, there is a very big one – the 2023 Specialized Allez is now only available with disc brakes..
For 2023, Specialized has slimmed down the Allez line to just two two models. The base model, which is the one I had on test, and the Allez Sport which features a 10 speed Shimano Tiagra groupset, as well as hydraulic disc brakes. .
