Im thinking of switching to a Cervelo S5 but im unsure whether to go with a size 51cm or 54cm. Id usually go with a frame that would be slightly smaller if im unsure about size, but im worried that the 51cm in the S5 might be a bit too small. But then again, i dont want to go with a frame that is too big either. Im buying online, so i cant get to test the bike myself.

I have had both bikes mentioned and rode a medium TCR and 54 S5 and was happy with the sizing on both .
