I found a Specialized Allez Sport (2014) that a bike shop is pricing at $425. It has rim brakes and downtube shifters.

Is this a decent deal?

Yah, a good reliable local shop is really helpful. Talk to this one, find out why they think this bike is worth that price. If you think their answer makes sense, go for it. If not, keep shopping around!
