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

Kuota Kharma Vs. Specialized Allez Comp
I'm looking to buy my first road bike and I came across two bikes that stood out to me on the used market. The first being a 2012 Kuota Kharma (asking $800 CAD) and the other is a Specialized Allez Comp (the year isn't specified but it looks very new and asking $850 CAD). Which would you pick and why?

Be aware that the Allez Sprint Comp will be very stiff, even for an aluminum bike.
