in Road buying advice
Hi everyone, first time posting on this forum :)

I have the possibility to buy one of this following bikes at a really attractive price, around 2.000 $USD each.

-Domane SL6 2020

-Argon18 Krypton CS 2019 Ultegra


What I heard mostly is to go with the Trek (better brand/tech/isospeed etc.) but my heart (thanks to the design and the color) is telling me to go with the Krypton.

Any advices ?

Thanks and have a good day !

    I had an SL5 disc a couple of years ago and while it was comfortable...I found it a bit dull and sold it.
    At the same time my brother bought the rim braked version and a friend got the cheaper aluminium version and they said the exact same thing.

    The person I sold it to loved it however

    So personally I'd go for the Argon out of those 2.

    The Domane has a bit more stack than the Krypton. 59 v 58cm on a 56 frame. The Krypton has less to go wrong with it and will no doubt be a comfy ride. Both are good bikes i haven’t ridden either. Can you try either of them at a bike shop?

    Sadly I cannot try the bikes.
    I think I will go with the Krypton CS Ultegra !
