Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

my new to me specialized allez

just thought id post up some pics of my new to me 07 specialized allez expert in case anyone cares or has questions about anything on it etc. pretty much everything is used but works great and was relatively cheap. full ultegra, ksyrium elites from like 06, michelin pro3s, shimano pro bars, concor light saddle, bontrager bar tape (which is amazing btw, it has ribber grippy stuff on the back instead of adhesive tape which makes wrapping easier if your sucky at it like i am, always do it wrong), look keo sprint pedals, and a blackburn neuro 6.0 computer which is pretty cool and seems to work pretty good so far once you get everything lined up and all that jazz. there are a few more pics over on my blog: https://blogpetebow.blogspot.com/

Nice! How much did you pay for it? The Allezes look great, yours especially with the minimal graphics. Congrats on the new ride.

Nice.

Solid stuff on there, a thoughtful build.

I am biased towards Ultegra and Elites though...
