Key Features

• COMPACT GEOMETRY - All of our Allez models employ Specialized Compact geometry. Compact geometry is a frame design that has a sloping top tube. This results in smaller front and rear triangles...in other words, a "compact" frame geometry.
Why Compact Geometry? There are four main benefits that flow from this compact frame: increased comfort, lighter weight, increased efficiency, and better fit.
• ZERTZ - Over the course of a ride, vibrations can take their toll on a rider, sapping comfort, energy, and focus. The goal of Zertz technology is to minimize vibrations transmitted to the rider, accomplished through elastomeric inserts in the fork, handlebar, seatstays, and seatpost. The result is a smoother, more comfortable ride.
• MATERIALS - Columbus SLX E5 alloy, A1 Premium Aluminum, and Columbus FOCO steel are selected to deliver the ride quality of choice.
