Like the spec lists have nothing to do with costs of components or manufacturing, or distribution, or etc. C'mon dude, get a grip.
The Allez is a new frame for 2011 isn't it? That's what I was under the impression of. What you just linked to has nothing to do with the origins of the frame. Afaik they designed the frame as an entry level frame. This is not the E5 Al Specialized Sworks Allez. Now that there is a nice frame.
Also, the stack looks a little much for the allez, no?
As far as the Trek 1.5 comment goes. I see two different bike frames. They both have tubes and the tubes have shapes. That is the only similarity I see. I have no idea where you're getting the 1.5 inspired bull from. See the headtube on the 10? See a similarity on the 1.5? No? Thought so.
See the headtube:downtube junction? Similarity? Yeah, they're welded together. Anything else? Nope!
Omg, the fork is straight-ish! There are no other bikes that have those right? Just because you owned a trek 1.5 doesn't mean that you see things similarly. I bet the seatstays are shaped the same too right?
