Giant Defy Advanced
Sportive riders and anyone who found TCR too low. Gravel-curious riders may still prefer Revolt for tire room.

New road riders and anyone who wants Specialized road geometry without carbon race numbers.
The endurance/entry alloy Specialized: taller and calmer than Allez Sprint. It is a first road bike and a winter beater, not a Tarmac.
