For This Bike
May 2017 · Sam Challis
The aluminium Specialized Allez DSW SL Sprint Expert aims to take the entry-level road bike into a new, racier era
Apr 2017 · Stu Kerton
Awesome speed machine for the racer on a budget and anyone else who likes to go fast
Mar 2017 · Matthew Loveridge
The Allez DSW is a cool and capable racer, but it deserves a better build. Buy if you want a dedicated race bike that won’t bankrupt you if you break it
Stiff and racy personality, unique design
Firm ride, so-so brakes
Oct 2016
The Specialized Allez DSW SL review is an absolute beast of a privateer racing machine: super-stiff, quick-handling, and a relatively good value, too.
Jun 2016 · Spencer Powlison
The Allez Sprint is a stiff frame with spot-on race handling that is priced affordably for the crit-racing set.
Mar 2016 · Bicycling
This aluminum crit racer is ready to attack

Can Specialized's latest aluminium Allez frameset give similarly-priced carbon-fibre bikes a run for their money?
High quality, well-finished frameset
Super-efficient Shimano 105 drivetrain
Decent weight at this price
Would have been nice to see a 105 chainset
Brushed aluminium look may not be to everyone's taste
