Specialized Allez 58cm
Shimano 105 Drivetrain
Stock wheels (ALX)
Upgraded saddle to Specialized Body Geometry brand


I have a Specialized Allez 58cm that I am wanting to sell. This is a very nice bike. There is one thing I would do if I was keeping the bike and that is take it to a shop and get new spokes on the rear wheel and get it rebuilt. (that can be done for 70 total bucks at my local shop). This bike has had two owners one being my father and one being me. My father is great about caring for his bikes, he regularly had is serviced. Once I got it about a year ago I became the main mechanic on it and have been taking care of it well.

I am located in the Dallas area. I am going to list the bike at $800 on Craigslist and hope for $600. Since it is TexAgs and I would assume it is going to an Ag I will sell it for $600 on here.

This bike would be good for someone 5' 11" or taller. Great for someone 6'1/2" or taller.

Selling because I just ordered a commuter from my LBS and this bike is actually bigger than I need to be riding. I will have pictures later tonight


P.S. there are a couple cosmetic scratches on the frame.

I'm interested if you can come down on price (I base that on selling my 2010 model for around that price last year).

5'11"? Not likely.

I'm 5 foot 9 and made it work just fine. I figure 511 would be even better.

How tall do you think?

in my opinion $600 is a pretty fair price.. not a steal, but fair.. but i don't think there is any way 5'11" fits (well)..

you must have a long torso if you're 5'9" riding a 58.. i'm 5'11" and have a tough time getting comfortable on some 56s much less 58.. i prefer 54cm in most brands.

I've got a really long torso, plus I ran a 60mm stem and I'm fairly certain its a compact style frame. I measured it out and had it fitting identical to my 54 cm race bike.

You can ride it, but it's too big for you.

Depends on leg length. Reach is more variable than stack. Longer legs means bigger bike. Then it depends on frame geometry for the brand and model. The Allez is a tall, narrow bike (relatively speaking).
