Rowers transition........specialized allez sport???????????

lejogx2

i have been persuaded to switch from rowing to cycling :idea: and am looking at a what bike to buy. i'm going to give racing a shot and i know with my budget i'm at the low end of the spectrum :oops: (approx 700-900). i would like to upgrade wheels etc if i start to get into cycling though. Ive been riding specialized MTB bike and absolutly love it. so naturally when i went to look at bikes i was drawn straight to specialized allez sport....... However being a rower i'm not sure if this is the best bike in this price range. i've read the post advising on bikes but i'm looking to spend around 700-900 and i didnt see anything there. Any Recomendations??????
thanks

Decent frame to upgrade IMO (but i`m biased !) nice pair of wheels and you`ll be OK. I`ve got a set of Mavic Ksyrium Elites for mine (when the weather gets a bit better I`ll fit `em) Other options include a second-hand bike in good condition, seem to be plenty of bikes for sale with little use. More for your money in the second-hand market.
