I'll have a nice story for the next Monday night ride at my LBS. Have to
explain why my bike looks significantly different from a few weeks ago

The owner of the shop told me that Specialized once replaced a mid-level
Allez frame with an S-Works frame because there were delays of some kind and
they didn't want a customer to wait any longer. Good job from the Big Red
"S."
