My freshly rebuilt Allez. Bought the frame cheap and added 105 groupset. Have had a great time building this (my first build) whilst getting my broken hand fixed up. Got it out on Sunday morning for an hour and amazed me at how much fitness I've lost in 10 weeks of no riding.

Hi I am looking at fuLcrum Quattros too for mine are they good they certainly look good on your bike it's them or campagnolo Zondas I'm unsure

Hi, based on my experience, quattro's roll pretty well compared to the stock wheel (axis 1.0) that came with my Allez and they also feel faster to me. I improved my strava time by at least 1km/hr since changing to the quattro's. I honestly don't know if this is because of the wheel itself or my fitness level is just improving. But one thing is certain, they look good on my bike. As compared to Zonda, I've got no experience with this wheelset so I cant comment on this. Quattro is cheaper however.

Is that a Fabiric saddle? They look good, but how do they feel?

 

[claggypants]

Its a Charge Scoop. Very similar to the Fabric i believe. Very comfortable but then I've only done the 9 miles i did on Sunday morning on it. Time will tell. If it makes any difference I'm a heavy chap at 15st and i like this saddle better than the stock saddle on my Crosstrail.

I updated my allez since my last post. Here it is now with new groupset - 105, saddle - selle italia xflow c2, seatpost & stem - ritchey, handlebar tape - lizard skin. Basically I just murdered it.

New wheels added to mine yesterday

My old Hardrock Pro 2011 I think. Bog standard apart from the Rockshox. Ridden extremely hard but well looked after and it never missed a beat
