Which Bike

Hi guys
Looking at 2 potential bikes to buy for training for and participating in an Ironman next year.
Looking at either a Cervelo S2 for circa £1650 or a 2015 Giant Propel Advanced 0 for circa £1800.
Both good frames (with the Cervelo probably the better) and pretty well suited for purpose I think. I will probably get some tri bars for the event and both could probably benefit from a wheel upgrade. I do like the idea of Di2 and it would cost a lot to upgrade the S2 to this.
Any thoughts or other ideas in the same price range? Thanks

If its purely for training towards an ironman, why not consider a tri bike?argon 18 e116 2013 Vision Metron 80

Thought about that and am open to it, but it will be my only bike so thought something slightly more versatile would be more appropriate.0
