2003 Specialized Allez Elite Large

Description

Industry Description:

Finding a Large (58cm) 2003 Specialized Allez Elite in good condition is like finding a time capsule from the era when aluminum frames began to truly challenge the pro peloton. This specific size is built for riders in the 5’11” to 6’2″ range and features the iconic A1 Premium Aluminum double-butted frame paired with the vibration-damping Specialized C-2 carbon fork. In 2003, this bike was the “privateer’s choice,” offering the same aggressive, race-winning geometry as the S-Works models but with the bulletproof reliability of a Shimano 105 9-speed groupset. Whether you’re a collector looking for that classic silver-and-black aesthetic or a rider wanting a “forever bike” that still weighs in under 20 lbs, the Large Allez Elite remains a benchmark for how a performance road bike should handle.

A little about the seller: I’ve been in the cycling industry for more than 30 years (I know, that makes me old!). I’ve been a professional bicycle mechanic for most of those years, including working locally at Lee’s Cyclery before they became Trek Stores. Now I work from home as a Customer Success Manager for a software team. But I still love fixing up and working on bikes, and riding them too! Purchase from me with peace of mind. Not only can you trust my years of experience, but I will also fit you for the bike and provide any mechanical insight at the time of purchase. No warranties or refunds are provided. The bikes are sold as-is. But It includes follow-up minor adjustments and fitting if needed within the first 30 days if sold locally.

Shipping information: I ship UPS Ground, and the bike is disassembled. It will be packed very well, but if you see any damage to the box or bike, keep the box and packing material, plus take pictures. I do insure all bikes that are shipped and require a signature. In addition, if shipped out of Colorado, there is no Sales Tax.  Colorado customers, try to buy Local. Info below:

If you’re local to Loveland, Colorado, it is highly recommended to come to check it out in person.
