In one look

The Argon 18 Sum Pro is built as a race geometry frame, the Cervélo S5 as a race geometry frame. The Cervélo S5 cockpit runs about 13 mm shorter, a noticeably more compact position. Across matched sizes the Argon 18 Sum Pro and Cervélo S5 front ends are within a few millimetres of each other, so posture will depend more on cockpit setup than on the frame.

For the Argon 18 Sum Pro in XXS there is no Cervélo S5 size with a comparable position: the range simply does not reach there.

FAQ

Which has the taller front end: Argon 18 Sum Pro or Cervélo S5?

Across matched sizes the Argon 18 Sum Pro and Cervélo S5 front ends are within a few millimetres of each other, so posture will depend more on cockpit setup than on the frame.

Can the same rider take different sizes on these two bikes?

Yes, and it happens often: frame labels are not standardized. Use the matched-size table for geometry, then run the fit check below with your own measurements for each bike.
