bike size need advice – Argon 18 Krypton

Hi 

I am 5’4″ (163cm) with a 28.5 inch (73) cm in-seam with long femur in relationship to the lower limb . I am planning to get a Argon 18 Krypton but are unsure where to get a XXS or XS. Would like to get some advise from the seasoned riders here.

Basically, here are the geometry of the 2 sizes

XXS

• TT = 50cm
• ST = 43cm
• HT = 9-11.4cm

XS

• TT = 52cm
• ST = 46.5cm
• HT = 10-12.4cm

I did have the opportunity to sit on the XXS and the standover height seems spot on. However, when I am on the drop. The hub is way in front of the bar, when I am on the hood it is less servere but still noticable, staff from the LBS swapped out the 80mm stem and put in a 100mm stem. It cure the problem to an extended. However, I hub is still slightly infront of the bar but not by a whole lot.

This is what it looks like when I am on the XXS with 80mm stem, before fitting.
