Apparently this is a 2012 Specialized Allez Comp in Size 52. I cannot find any Allez models matching this photo. It claims to be Shimano 105. Any ideas? Thank you!

It looks totally legitimate. It's a small size and could be in the "lady" colourway. Quite common to have the same bike in different colours for F & M for that era, just the ladies' often had blue/pink/flowers and was available in a smaller size with a different saddle.– NoiseCommented Jan 8, 2022 at 20:45

Thank you, I appreciate the feedback. It does look like a lady colourway.– user63282Commented Jan 9, 2022 at 19:07

The frame and wheels do look like the Specialized Allez Sport as shown on Specialized’s website (just with a slightly different paint job):

The one in the link has a cheap Shimano Sora groupset.
Here's the 2012 Allez lineup:
I don't see a ladies Allez in the catalog. For 2012 it does not look like the right decal scheme.

The ladies' version was called Dolce, not sure if Specialized do ladies models of bikes nowadays– SwiftyCommented Jan 10, 2022 at 22:09

@Swifty I don't know about other models, but I'm pretty sure they're still making the Ruby (women's version of the Roubaix).– DavidWCommented Jan 10, 2022 at 23:43
