What do you mean by, "...hard to shift..."? You can't reach the levers from the drops? The lever is difficult to push because it requires a lot of effort? What exactly? I upgraded my '14 from Sora to 105 (5800) and one thing that I did notice is that with two more gears, it takes less effort to switch gears in either direction. But I didn't find it particularly difficult to shift from the drops with the Sora.

IIRC, the minimum that you need to change in order to switch "up" to Tiagra or higher are the right shifter, cassette and chain. You can try to source the individual parts from eBay, just make sure that you get the same series components.

1. It's lightweight, something like 225gm.
2. Vry comfortable, provides good support as well as the option to switch position.
3. Super quality, after all it's hand-made in italy
all in all I'm very pleased with it.BTW this Project is available for purchase, it's brand new, with warranty and all original labling, it's build from the gound up based on the 2016 Allez Frameset but with spec not offered by the company and performance supperior to the already good one.
If anyone's interested more info and pics will be provided at 'Animus.DnD@gmail.com'

WV is not flat..
I just finished restoring this 93 Allez Comp. Such a fun ride. Shame it’s a little small for me.
