It is listed on one of the Marketplaces. The bike is an aluminum frame (like all the Allez I believe) with aluminum front fork (not carbon like some include).
It is a 3x8 speed with Sora 3300 series shifters with the little thumb buttons to go the other direction, and Sora rear derailleur that has the outer cage plate stating it is a 9 speed. But the cassette is only an 8 speed. Searches of Bicycle Blue Book does not seem to come up (but I did not do a search of every single year of Allez back to the mid to late 1990's... So any insight on this year of manufacture?
How easy would it be to make it a 3x9 speed. New cassette of course (new chain probably, but the chain did not look all that great with some rust etc. as it even will clean up or not.)
Would the shifter and rear derailleur (is the Sora brifter a 8 speed and 9 or only 8 on this 3300 or 3303) still need replaced??
