    It is usual for the poster to provide links to the bikes in question so that forum bods have information to base an opinion on.

    Are you looking at complete bikes? Or building your own spec around the frameset? If the former, what's the spec of the two you're looking at? Also, what's the price of each option?

    After 2 glowing reviews I am hoping to buy an Argon 18 Krypton next year but will probably go for the GF model. AFAIK the Argon 18 can only be bought as a frame so being able to get a test ride somewhere will be near impossible.

    The Argon 18 has the advantage of variable stack height whilst the Cervelo is lower though the reach is about the same.

    The 2 reviews:
    https://road.cc/content/review/268959-argon-18-krypton-pro-frameset

    https://granfondo-cycling.com/argon-18-krypton-pro-2020-review/

    Both sites gave a best in test though the Cervelo hadn't been launched at the time.
