Upgrading to Carbon Frame?

nickcach said:

Hi,

I currently have a 2004 Specialized Allez Comp with a complete Ultegra Group. I am looking to upgrade the frame to carbon. I would like to stay with specialized, but will consider everything. Also, I was quoted $150 for the labor of transfering my components. Does that sound right?

Any suggestions on hwat frame to purchase?

Thank you,

Nick Cach

what's your budget?

I would like to keep it under $1000. Thats including the fact that my current frame can go for at least $300.

Pretty impressive, but their frame logo is rather tacky.

I didn't even know they had a frame logo, I thought all their frames shipped jet black and under the radar. Is it that broken P-F icon on their homepage?
