The Specialized Allez Sprint (2023 on) uses a IS42 integrated upper headset (integrated, 42 mm), a 27.2 mm class seatpost, a 12x100 mm front thru-axle at the front (12 mm x 100 mm, front) and a 31.8 mm band front derailleur.
An aluminium frame may have a round seat tube rather than a braze-on tab, so a clamp front derailleur can be needed; check the tube. The bottom bracket is covered on its own page.
