Really this comes down to your personal preference. If you can try them, do so and pick the one that makes you smile the most. Just make sure you try them on roads similar to what you will be riding on - to test the ride comfort. Bikes like the Roubaix and Domane are notably more comfortable on poor roads.
that is what so confusing , the Domane has a lower stack but slightly shorter reach than allez, so how can it be more comfortable …should be about same stack on Domane is 59.1 and allez is 59.6 and reach on Domane is 37.7and allez is 38.5. So doesn’t the slightly longer reach compensate on allez even things out with lower stack of Domane ?
