Summary
The Specialized Allez Sprint is a standout aluminium race bike that combines aero optimization with a ride quality reminiscent of carbon frames. It excels in handling and power transfer, making it a favorite for competitive riding, though its stiffness and stock components may detract from comfort and value for some.
One of the best aluminium frames available
Excellent handling and power transfer
Aerodynamic optimization
Good value for money as a capable race bike
Improved aerodynamic optimisation
Average wheels and tyres
Weight penalty versus similarly priced carbon bikes
Stiff frameset can be uncomfortable on rough roads
Industrial, utilitarian aesthetic of welds may not appeal to everyone
Price is considered high for an aluminium bike
The 2022 Allez Sprint proves aluminium can still cut it as a material for race bikes.
BikeRadarFor those taking their first foray into serious road riding, the Comp build represents a pretty incredible option for a first bike.
Cycling NewsThis is a superb bike to sprint on (once used to it), as reactive to pedalling efforts as any bike I’ve ridden, and imbued with sensational handling thanks to that Tarmac geometry.

The latest Specialized Allez Sprint Comp features an aluminium frame that’s as aerodynamically efficient as its carbon road race. But is it any
Tidy looks
Sharp handling
Clever welding
Average wheelset
Heavier than carbon
It’s expensive

An aluminium bike breaking genuine new ground, but at a price close to carbon fibre the Allez Sprint is a hard sell

The Allez Sprint represents a compelling race-ready chassis, with excellent handling, though it could come specced with wider tyres from factory
Fantastic handling
Efficient power transfer
Aerodynamic alloy frame
The included 26c tyres are too narrow for the frame stiffness
Bottle cage bolts rounded off at first use

The all new Allez Sprint gets even faster and stiffer than its predecessor, setting the bar for Specialized Alloy
Jul 2019 · Robin Wilmott
The Allez Sprint is an aluminium terrier of a bike: frisky, feisty, fast and very endearing
Clever frame construction, good spec, fine performance
Not an all-day option, wheelset doesn’t climb well

Slovakian Champion was racing without the rainbow stripes for the first time in three years at the Down Under Classic in Adelaide

Raw aluminium, smart welds, and an aero seatpost. Can the € 1,799 Specialized Allez Sprint Comp do its stealth look justice in our practical tests?
