Road test and buy the one that rides the best for you.

My LBS has a short little path around the shop and they let you ride it for however long you want. Plus, they have a 30 day money back 60 days in store credit swap out if I am not happy. The 58 Allez felt better than either the 56 or 58 Diverge but the sales guy said a shorter stem would make a ton of difference on the 58 Diverge.
I assume a proper fitting is worth it, just like in other sports? I think my LBS does the Perfect Fit program.
Thanks!
